INGREDIENTS
12 eggs, beaten
12 ounces organic fresh spinach
1/2 c. thinly sliced green onions
2 c. grated mozzarella cheese
2 teaspoons olive oil
fresh ground black pepper to taste
2 teaspoons Spike seasoning (or use any all-purpose seasoning mix that’s good with eggs)
HOW TO MAKE SPINACH AND MOZZARELLA EGG BAKE
Step 1: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 375 degrees F or 190 degrees C. Using olive oil or nonstick spray, grease a 9 x 13-inch glass or crockery casserole dish.
Step 2: In a large frying pan, heat the oil. Then, add the spinach, stir, and cook for about 2 minutes until wilted.
Step 3: In the prepared casserole dish, transfer the spinach and spread it around to cover the bottom of the dish. On top, layer the grated cheese and sliced onions. To taste, season with Spike seasoning and fresh ground pepper.
Step 4: Whisk the eggs until well blended, then pour this on top of the casserole dish. Gently stir using a fork to evenly combine the eggs, spinach, and cheese.
Step 5: Place in the preheated oven and bake for about 25 to 30 minutes or until set and beginning to turn lightly brown. Remove from the oven when done and allow it to cool for about 5 minutes.
Step 6: Slice and serve hot. Enjoy!
NOTES:
You can keep the individual servings in the fridge and heat them in the microwave for no longer than 1 to 2 minutes for a quick breakfast.
Serve this with sour cream and a drizzle of Green Tabasco Sauce on top if desired.
