scrambled eggs with spinach pesto and mushrooms

Serves 4

A delicious healthy recipe from our Co-Founder and Nutrition Director, Louise Keats.

This breakfast ticks every box – lots of greens, plenty of protein, so nutrient dense and absolutely delicious! If you have the pesto on hand in the fridge, you can make it in minutes.

If you’re making this meal for one or two, just quarter or halve the quantities.
