02 / HOW TO MAKE IT

Let's cook.

Step 1

Start by heating your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease an 8x8 inch baking dish. In a skillet over medium-high heat, warm up the olive oil, then add the zucchini, green onions, onion, tomatoes, mushrooms, and spinach. Splash in some lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, and a bit of hot sauce for a little kick. Sprinkle with garlic powder, salt, and pepper, then cook everything until the veggies are nice and tender. Once that’s done, transfer the veggies to your baking dish and pour the egg substitute over them. Sprinkle cheese on top, then pop it in the oven. Let it bake for about 20 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the cheese is melted and bubbly. When it’s ready, slice it up with a spatula and dig in!
