    Take eggs to the next dimension with this healthy breakfast or brunch dish. With a side of garlic toast, fruit and beverage, 1 egg on a bed of spinach makes a serving for us. But plan 2 egg-portions for hearty appetites. Leftovers keep well for tomorrow's breakfast.

    Ingredients

    • 2 tablespoons olive oil
    • 10 button mushrooms, sliced
    • 1/2 cup onions, chopped
    • Salt and pepper to taste
    • 1 heaping teaspoon garlic, minced (about 2 cloves)
    • Dash hot sauce
    • Dash red pepper seeds
    • 2 medium tomatoes, chopped
    • 1/4 cup dry white wine
    • 1 6-ounce bag baby spinach, pre-washed
    • 4 eggs
    • Cheese for garnish such as feta, Parmesan, etc.
    • 6 large basil leaves, cut into thin strips for garnish

    Directions

    1. Heat olive oil in skillet on medium high. Brown mushrooms on both sides.
    2. Add onion and season lightly with salt and pepper. Saute for 1 minute.
    3. Add garlic, hot sauce, red pepper seeds. Add tomatoes and wine; saute for an additional minute.
    4. Add spinach and toss until wilted. Make 4 indentations evenly spaced in spinach mixture with back of spoon. Carefully crack one egg into each indentation. Sprinkle with a little salt and pepper.
    5. Sprinkle cheese and basil strips on top of all. Cover and cook just until eggs are set but yolks are soft.
