Yield Makes 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup coarse fresh breadcrumbs made from crustless country-style bread
5 teaspoons dijon mustard, divided
2 teaspoons plus 1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 teaspoon mustard seeds
1 9-ounce package fresh spinach leaves
3 tablespoons half and half
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
2 large eggs
Fresh thyme sprigs (for garnish)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Toss crumbs with 2 teaspoons mustard, 2 teaspoons oil, and mustard seeds in medium bowl to coat.
  • Scatter on rimmed baking sheet. Bake until golden and crisp, 6 to 8 minutes. Meanwhile, add enough water to deep large nonstick skillet to cover bottom. Add spinach; toss over high heat to wilt, about 2 minutes. Scrape into sieve set over bowl; press out liquid. Wipe out skillet; reserve.
  • Transfer spinach to medium saucepan. Add 3 teaspoons mustard, half and half, and chopped thyme. Stir over medium heat until thick, about 3 minutes. Season with freshly ground black pepper. Remove from heat.
  • Heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil in reserved skillet over medium-high heat. Crack eggs into skillet, spacing apart. Fry until whites are cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes. Divide spinach between 2 plates, spreading out as base for eggs. Top with eggs, crumbs, and thyme sprigs.

This dish is a great way to use up leftover spinach. I also like that it's a one-pan meal.

I would make this again, but I would make a few changes. I would use less mustard and I would add some other vegetables to the spinach, like mushrooms or bell peppers.

Overall, I thought this dish was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

The crispy crumbs were a nice touch, but I found the mustard creamed spinach to be a bit overpowering.

This was a bit too rich for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with a lighter sauce.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my dish turned out really bland. I think I might have added too much mustard.

I'm not a huge fan of spinach, but this dish was amazing! The mustard creamed sauce was so flavorful and the crispy crumbs added a great crunch.

This dish was delicious and easy to make. I used frozen spinach and it turned out great. The mustard added a nice tangy flavor.

I made this last night, and it was a hit! The crispy crumbs added a great texture contrast to the creamy spinach and the sunny side up eggs were cooked perfectly.
