According to my cookbooks, Joe's Special is a San Francisco specialty dating to the 1920's. I have seen several versions; what they all have in common is ground beef, spinach and eggs. This is not fancy, but it makes a great main dish for a light supper or brunch. I like to serve this with toasted Beer Bread and a fresh fruit salad.

- When the butter has melted, add the ground beef and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and crumbly.
- Add the onion and garlic and cook until the onion is tender but not browned.

- If using fresh spinach, cook until the spinach wilts.
- Add the beaten eggs to the beef/spinach mixture and cook until the eggs are set, about 3 minutes.
