Creamy Scrambled Eggs with Spinach and Cheese

I can be weirded out by eggs at times, and I tend never to order scrambled eggs or omelets in restaurants. Making them at home is a different story. This is one of my favorite ways to make scrambled eggs- and it lends itself extremely well to variations. So creamy and tasty. Plus, spinach is good for you, right? I'm sure it completely negates the cream cheese and what have you.
