Egg And Spinach Side Dish Recipes

EGG NOODLES WITH SPINACH

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook egg noodles in the boiling water, stirring occasionally until cooked through but firm to the bite, about 8 minutes; drain and return noodles to pot.
• While the noodles boil, melt butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Saute onion and garlic in melted butter until lightly browned and soft, about 8 minutes. Stir baby spinach into the onion mixture; saute until the spinach is just barely wilted, about 2 minutes.
• Stir spinach mixture into the noodles; season with salt and pepper.

SPINACH AND EGGS

Steps:

• In a large skillet, saute your onion in the butter until translucent.
• Dump the frozen spinach into the skillet with the onion and add the 1/4 cup water. Cover and cook on medium heat, stirring occasionally to keep the spinach from sticking.
• Once the spinach is wilted and appears done, pour in the 2 eggs which have been whisked well.
• Stir continually until the egg turns white and the spinach appears "dry", but make sure not to overcook.
• Sprinkle with seasoned salt (to taste) immediately before serving.

HEALTHY SPINACH SCRAMBLED EGGS

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and coat it well with cooking spray. If you prefer, use a nonstick skillet for easier cleanup later.
• Crack the eggs into a medium-sized dish. Using a wire whisk, beat the eggs and break up the yolks completely.
• Add the milk to the egg mixture, followed by the salt and ground black pepper. Whisk the mixture together well.
• Pour the egg mixture into the heated pan, using a fork to stir the egg mixture continuously as it cooks. (If you are using a nonstick skillet, stir the eggs with a wooden spoon or silicone tool since a fork can scratch the pan's surface.)
• When the eggs begin to take form, add the spinach to the pan.
• Continue cooking the eggs and spinach until the spinach wilts and the eggs are no longer runny, about 2 minutes.

EGG AND SPINACH CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Prepare a 9x13 inch baking dish with cooking spray.
• Beat the eggs in a mixing bowl with the onion and flour until the flour is no longer lumpy. Stir in the spinach, cottage cheese, Cheddar cheese, butter, salt, and pepper until evenly combined; pour into the prepared dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the casserole is bubbly and the top is golden brown, about 45 minutes.

GRATINE OF EGGS AND SPINACH

Steps:

• To make the gratine, place the eggs in a saucepan and cover with warm tap water. Bring to a boil over high heat, reduce the heat, and boil gently for approximately 8 minutes. Pour off the hot water, and shake the eggs in the pan to crack the shells. Add some ice to the pan, and fill it with cold water. Set aside until the eggs are cool enough to handle, and then shell them. Return the eggs to the cool water, and set aside to cool completely.
• Heat the olive oil in a skillet. When hot, add the spinach, still wet from washing, and press it into the skillet. Add salt and pepper, and cook until the spinach is soft and wilted, about 3 minutes. Arrange evenly in a gratin dish. Slice the eggs with an egg slicer or by hand, and arrange them in one layer on top of the spinach.
• For the sauce, melt the butter in a small saucepan. Add the flour, and mix it in with a whisk. Add the milk, bring to a boil, stirring (especially in the corners, where the mixture tends to stick and burn), until it comes to the boil. Stir in the salt and pepper, and continue to boil for about 10 seconds. Pour the sauce over the eggs, coating them with the cheese.
• Place the gratine dish about 6 inches from heat under a hot broiler for about 5 minutes, until the surface is nicely browned. If the gratine is assembled ahead and cooled, first place it in a 425-degree oven for about 7 to 8 minutes, then slide it under the broiler for about 5 minutes to heat the eggs and brown the top.
