Zucchini, Spinach and Parmesan Egg Scramble

I absolutely love zucchini, and in the summertime, I’m always looking for ways to use it in my cooking. Zucchini is incredibly versatile, and because of its mild flavor it can be used with many different ingredients and flavors.

One of the simplest ways to use it is to throw it in with some eggs! I love to add a little spinach for some added nutrition and adding some parmesan cheese just brings it all together into a delicious scramble. It’s a quick meal to make for yourself or for your family.

For Littles

This scramble is the perfect thing to serve to your littles! Not only is it an easy dish to digest (especially important for babies), but when you add in the protein from the eggs and vitamins from the veggies you’ve got a quick, easy, and incredibly healthy dish for your little one.

My 13-month-old absolutely loves this scramble…she’s always been obsessed with scrambled eggs (and cheese) and I think the added veggies here are so mild she doesn’t even notice the difference. You can serve this to your babies 8 months+!

This is how I serve to my 13 month old:

How To

While the veggies cook, scramble the eggs in a bowl.

Then pour in the eggs and let cook and then starting folding. Add Parmesan cheese and fold again.

Serve right away!
