Scrambled Eggs in a Mug - Single Serving

I made it this morning to see if having eggs in the morning will help me with the 3 p.m. slump. However, before I took it to work , I wanted to see what they tasted like. So instead of my protein smoothie, I tried this recipe this morning for breakfast. I liked it - quick and easy and if I can get the egg mixture to work and store in the fridge, it will probably make a good 3 p.m. snack.

Ingredients:
coffee mug
non stick spray
1 egg
1 egg white (3 tbsp liquid egg whites)
1/8 cup part skim mozzarella cheese
1/8 cup baby spinach
salt and pepper to taste

Method:
1. Spray the coffee mug with the non stick spray
2. Prepare egg mixture by combining egg, egg whites, salt and pepper
3. Layer spinach at the bottom of the cup, pour egg mixture and top with cheese
4. microwave or one minute
5. remove from microwave and gently stir to mix in cooked and uncooked portions of egg and to blend spinach and cheese
6. Microwave for 1 more minute.
7. Let cool and enjoy while warm
