Sweet Cinnamon Scramble

Most of us want something sweet in the morning, but we don’t want a cold smoothie or we’re trying to do minimal grains (that means no oats or cereal!). What’s a girl to do?

Take eggs and make them sweet! (Share this great breakfast treat with your friends!)

The coconut oil in this recipe is good for your metabolism and soothing for your digestive tract and the cinnamon has fiber and is a natural blood sugar balancer and is very warming for the body. Eggs add a quick and inexpensive protein, and together with the rest of the ingredients, you don’t taste the spinach (but can still get your greens on!).
