Ingredients
  

4 large eggs

1/2 cup bell peppers (diced) - any color

1/2 cup spinach (fresh, chopped)

1/4 cup red onion (diced)

1/2 cup cherry tomatoes (halved)

1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

1/4 teaspoon paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

2 tablespoons olive oil

4 whole wheat pita pockets

1/2 avocado (sliced)

1/4 cup feta cheese (crumbled, optional)

Fresh herbs for garnish (e.g. parsley or cilantro)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Veggies: In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced red onion and sauté for about 2-3 minutes until translucent.

    Add Peppers and Spinach: Incorporate the diced bell peppers and chopped spinach, cooking for another 2-3 minutes until the spinach wilts. Add the garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir well, then remove from heat and set aside.

      Cook the Eggs: In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs together with a pinch of salt and pepper. Heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in the same skillet over medium-low heat. Pour in the eggs and cook gently, stirring occasionally, until they are softly scrambled (about 4-5 minutes).

        Combine Ingredients: Once the eggs are cooked, gently fold in the sautéed veggies and halved cherry tomatoes. Stir until everything is well combined and heated through.

          Assemble the Pita Pockets: Carefully open the whole wheat pita pockets and fill each one generously with the egg and veggie mixture.

            Add Avocado and Feta: Top with slices of avocado and sprinkle feta cheese on each pocket if desired. Garnish with fresh herbs for an extra touch of flavor.

              Serve Warm: Enjoy your delicious Egg & Veggie Delight Pita Pockets warm, perfect for breakfast or a satisfying lunch!
