Spinach and Salsa Eggs






I can already see your scrunched up nose in disgust.  Eggs?  Really?

Like many people, I am not a fan of eggs.  I know they are packed with protein and healthy for you, but most days, I can't stomach them.

When I have work in the mornings, I usually just grab some fruit and yogurt for breakfast.  But, when I have a day off (like today, yes!),  I like to make a good breakfast for Joe and I.  Joe made me these eggs a few months ago and now whenever he asks what I want for breakfast, I immediately respond Spinach eggs pleeeeaaaseee.  Since then, we have experimented with putting different things in our eggs.  Spinach and homemade salsa is by far our favorite.  My family gets together every year to make jars and jars, and yes, more jars of salsa.  We like to put really hot green chilies in ours.  Yum!

The eggs look pretty when cooked with spinach and salsa.  For some reason, they remind me of Christmas, ha ha.  I like these eggs because I CAN'T TASTE THE EGG!  It's such a simple dish to make for breakfast, but is delicious.

Here's how to make them:

I start out with whisking some eggs in a bowl.




Add some finely chopped spinach leaves.



Start cooking it in a pan on the stove.  When the eggs start to cook, add a few spoonfuls of salsa.

And wha-la (or however you spell it), spinach and salsa eggs!


So simple, but you will love them. :)

Enjoy!

  3. @Emily: it's really good! I didn't really like spinach until I ate these. You don't even taste the spinach. Now that I put it in my eggs, I eat it with everything, traded the lettuce for spinach. You asked what else we have tried, just various veggies to make them even more healthy. Green peppers are yummy!
