Ingredients:

  • Fresh spinach leaves (a handful or as desired)

  • 1/2 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or your choice of similar variety)
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Olive oil or butter for cooking

Instructions:
Prepare the spinach.

  • Thoroughly rinse the spinach leaves to get rid of any grit or debris. After draining, put away.
  • To cook the onion, melt some butter or a tiny quantity of olive oil in a pan over medium heat.
  • To the skillet, add the chopped onions. Sauté the onions for five to seven minutes, or until they are transparent and beginning to become golden.
  • Add the Spinach: Include the onions in a pan with some fresh spinach leaves. Simmer for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the spinach has wilted. Stirring often helps to blend the tastes.
  • Cook the Eggs: Make tiny wells in the combination of onions and spinach, then break one egg into each well. Add pepper and salt for seasoning.
  • After the eggs are cooked to your preferred doneness, cover the pan with a lid. Cook for roughly 3 to 5 minutes for set whites and runny yolks to form.
  • Add Cheese: After the eggs are almost done, top the spinach and eggs with the shredded cheese. To let the cheese melt, cover the pan once more for approximately a minute.
  • Serving: Take the pan off the burner as soon as the cheese is bubbling and melted. Serve hot straight out of the pan for a filling breakfast or a healthy dinner at any time of day.
