Why I love this recipe

This recipe uses only six main ingredients plus salt and pepper. It’s straightforward, comes together in six easy steps, and is ready in about 20 minutes—ideal for busy mornings or a simple weekend brunch.

Substitutions and additions

If you prefer a leaner option, substitute turkey Spam. For extra creaminess, stir in shredded cheddar just before serving.

You can also add diced tomatoes, chopped cilantro, or sliced mushrooms for more flavor and texture.

Pro tips

For tasty breakfast burritos, wrap the scrambled Spam mixture in warmed flour tortillas with cheese and salsa.

To turn this into an omelet, cook the Spam and vegetables, pour in the beaten eggs, and fold once set.
