Crack the eggs into a medium-sized mixing bowl. Add the heavy cream, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until thoroughly combined and slightly frothy.
Dice the cheddar cheese into small cubes. Set aside.
Halve the cherry tomatoes and roughly chop the spinach. Set aside.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the olive oil and the cherry tomatoes. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes soften slightly.
Add the spinach to the skillet and sauté for 1-2 minutes until just wilted. Remove the tomato and spinach mixture from the skillet and set aside.
Reduce the heat to low and add the unsalted butter to the same skillet. Allow the butter to melt completely, coating the pan evenly.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Let it sit undisturbed for about 20-30 seconds so it can start to set at the edges.
Using a silicone spatula, gently push the eggs from the edges toward the center of the skillet, forming soft curds. Continue this process, moving the spatula around the skillet, until the eggs are mostly cooked but still slightly wet.
Add the cheddar cheese cubes and the sautéed tomato-spinach mixture to the eggs. Gently fold everything together and cook for 1-2 more minutes until the cheese is melty and the eggs are fully cooked but not dry.
Remove from heat and transfer to a plate. Serve hot and enjoy immediately, ideally with a slice of crusty bread or a buttered toast on the side.
