Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 4 links sausages (chicken or pork, pre-cooked preferred)
• 6 cups fresh spinach
• 2 garlic cloves (minced)
• 4 eggs
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoons red pepper flakes (optional)
• 0.25 cups parmesan cheese (optional, freshly grated)

Directions

Step 1

Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.

Step 2

Slice the sausage links into 1/2-inch pieces and add them to the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until browned and heated through. Remove the sausages from the skillet and set aside.

Step 3

In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the fresh spinach to the skillet in batches, stirring frequently, until wilted. This should take about 3-4 minutes.

Step 5

Season the spinach with salt, black pepper, and optional red pepper flakes for some heat.

Step 6

Reduce the heat to low. Make four small wells or indentations in the spinach mixture and crack an egg into each well.

Step 7

Cover the skillet with a lid and cook the eggs for 5-7 minutes, or until the whites are set and the yolks are cooked to your desired doneness.

Step 8

Return the cooked sausage slices to the skillet, tucking them around the spinach and eggs.

Step 9

If desired, sprinkle freshly grated parmesan cheese over the dish for added flavor.

Step 10

Serve immediately by scooping portions of spinach, egg, and sausage onto plates. Enjoy your hearty and wholesome meal!
