This is easy and delicious and makes a quick week night meal - ground beef may be used in place of the sausage meat but I prefer the sausage meat - it's important to make certain to squeeze out any excess moisture on the spinach with your hands - serve with crusty bread and butter. Ingredients:
7 large eggs |
3 tablespoons half-and-half (or use milk) |
1 dash tabasco sauce, to taste |
1 dash salt and pepper, to taste |
1/2 teaspoon dried basil |
2 -4 tablespoons olive oil |
2 tablespoons butter |
1 medium onion, chopped |
1/2-1 lb white button mushrooms |
4 italian sausages, casings removed (or use about 1/2 pound coarsley ground beef) |
1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and well drained (squeeze out excess moisture with hands) |
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese |
Directions:
1. In a small bowl whisk eggs with half and half, Tabasco, salt, pepper and basil.
2. In a large skillet melt butter with oil over medium heat.
3. Saute the sliced mushrooms until the moisture is released (about 10 minutes).
4. Add in onions, adding in more oil or butter if needed; saute for about 4 minutes.
5. Add in the sausage meat, breaking up the meat into small pieces as it cooks.
6. Sprinkle with the spinach (do not mix in). Cover with a lid and cook for about 5-6 minutes to steam spinach.
7. Stir the spinach into the sausage mixture.
8. Pour the eggs over the sausage mixture, stirring with a wooden spoon and cooking until eggs are JUST beginning to set.
9. Remove from heat and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese.
10. Serve immediately.
