Baked Eggs with Spinach and Mushrooms

Baked Eggs with Spinach and Mushrooms

Sometimes, breakfast for dinner hits the spot. We were late getting home last night and I wanted something for dinner that was quick and easy. I had all the ingredients for this recipe in the fridge and in less than 30 minutes dinner was ready. This nutritious dinner was just the ticket.

I’ve made creamed spinach as a side dish for years and the addition of eggs made this dish a complete meal. Of course a side of bacon would put this dinner over the top.

    What a wonderful, quick meal! I particularly love the cast iron skillet. I have my mother’s and they are great. The presentation was especially nice. How do you eat so well and stay so skinny?
