The idea for this recipe came to me one morning when I was looking for a quick and easy way to get my protein and veggie fix.

I added some chopped onion, bell pepper, mushrooms, and spinach, and the result was a delicious and satisfying scramble. I've been making this scramble ever since, and it's become a favorite of mine and my family.
