Directions
- Wash hands with soap and warm water for at least 20 seconds. Clean all countertops and equipment used for food preparation.

- Spray a small nonstick skillet with cooking spray. Heat over medium low heat. Pour egg mixture into skillet and as egg begins to set, use a spatula to gently push cooked portions to the centre. Tilt pan to allow uncooked eggs to flow into empty spaces.
