Use up leftover spinach or dark leafy greens, whether they are from the night before or frozen and defrosted. These baked eggs come together quickly and while they bake you can prepare other parts of the meal such as toast to scoop up and enjoy the runny yolks.
A large bunch of spinach cooked down is the perfect amount for two servings of nutritional goodness for breakfast. It is a great way to use up extra spinach or dark leafy greens. For a flavorful punch, a sprinkle of Parmesan is lovely but not necessary. In summer if you have a tomato to spare, chop it up and add it on top.
Add this to any breakfast or a bowl of soup or a dinner that needs a bit more fiber. Be sure to use a bread that uses whole wheat flour as the first ingredient. Avoid enriched whole wheat flour which is basically white flour stripped of its nutrients with some brown coloring and vitamins added back in. May as well start with the real thing including the bran and wheat germ. Also, enjoy your toast with just a bit of real butter rather than a dollop of fake trans-fat laden margarine or butter lightened with vegetable oils. Just eat a bit of it and enjoy every bite!
