How to Make Egg and Spinach Breakfast Pita

    Add egg mixture to skillet and cook, tossing constantly but gently, until fluffy and cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes.

  3. Step 3

    Remove from heat, add mozzarella and toss again. Spoon mixture evenly into pita halves. Top with parsley, if using. Serve immediately.
