Ingredients
4 large eggs
1/2 cup kimchi, roughly chopped
1 bell pepper, diced
2 green onions (leek or scallion), sliced
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon avocado oil
1 tablespoon coconut aminos
1/2 teaspoon hot sauce, to taste
1 pinch pink Himalayan salt and black pepper, to taste
1 cup fresh arugula or kale, to serve
Directions
Heat avocado oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and bell pepper and cook, stirring, until softened, about 3–4 minutes.
Stir in the kimchi and cook for another minute to warm it through and deepen the flavor.
Whisk the eggs with the coconut aminos and a pinch of salt and pepper. Pour into the skillet and cook, folding gently with a spatula, until just set — you want them soft and slightly custardy.
Plate over a bed of arugula or kale, top with green onions and a dash of hot sauce. Serve immediately.
For the best texture, pull the eggs off the heat just before they look fully done — residual heat will finish them. If kimchi feels too bold for your taste, sauerkraut makes a milder swap with similar probiotic benefits. Alfalfa sprouts scattered on top add great crunch and freshness. Coconut aminos can be swapped for a small splash of tamari if needed. Serve straight from the pan for the best experience, as the greens will wilt pleasantly under the warm scramble.
