BAKED SPINACH AND EGGS image

Categories     Egg     Breakfast     Vegetarian

Number Of Ingredients 5

6 cups firmly packed baby spinach or 1 (10 oz or up to 1 lb) bag fresh baby spinach*
4 eggs (can increase to 6 if you are using more spinach)
salt and freshly ground pepper
1 tbsp crumbled feta cheese for 1-2 eggs (about 2-3 tbps in total)
baking spray or a little oil for greasing

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F. Lightly spray or grease with a little oil individual ramekins or other small oven safe dishes that can accomodate 1-2 eggs. See photo above. Set aside. Place the spinach in a deep skillet or a large frying pan. Add a little water (2-3 Tablespoons). Using medium heat, cook the spinach just until wilted, roughly 3-4 minutes. Use either your hand or a spatula to pack in the spinach. Drain the excess water well especially if you are using frozen spinach. Distribute the spinach evenly among the prepared ramekins or oven-safe dishes. Crack 1-2 eggs on top of the spinach. Season lightly with salt and pepper - lightly because Feta cheese is pretty salty on its own. Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese on top. Place the baking dishes or ramekins on a cookie sheet and bake for about 15-18 minutes or until the eggs are set/cooked (whites are set and yolks look firm on the edges) to your liking. I like mine well-done but some like eggs that are a little runny. Whatever you like as long as the eggs are substantially cooked inside, it's fine. Serve with some toasted bread or rice on the side and tomato juice.

This recipe is so easy to make and it's a great way to use up leftover spinach. I've also made it with other greens, like kale and chard, and it's always delicious.

I'm not a fan of runny eggs, so I cooked them for a little longer than the recipe called for. They turned out perfect!

I added some crumbled feta cheese to the eggs and spinach, and it was amazing! I also served it with some roasted potatoes, and it was a complete meal.

I followed the recipe exactly and the eggs turned out overcooked. I think I'll try it again and cook the eggs for a shorter amount of time.

This baked spinach and eggs recipe was a hit with my family! The eggs were perfectly cooked and the spinach was flavorful and tender. I served it with some whole-wheat toast and fresh fruit, and it was a delicious and satisfying breakfast.
