Start your day off on a great note with this easy scramble, making great use of last night's leftover quinoa. The quinoa bulks up scrambled eggs, lending fiber and additional protein to the mix. Two big handfuls of spinach give you a good dose of veggies. You could also use kale, Swiss chard, or collard greens—they'll just require a little more time to wilt. If you do use kale, chard, or collard greens, be sure to cut off the center stalk - it requires a lot more time to cook until tender enough to eat.
