Creamed Spinach Egg Skillet Recipes

CREAMY ONE-POT SPINACH AND EGG BREAKFAST RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a 9-inch (23 cm) cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and ½ teaspoon of salt. Cook for 6-8 minutes, until the onions are softened and translucent.
• Add the garlic, red pepper flakes, and nutmeg and cook for 2 minutes, until the garlic is fragrant.
• Sprinkle the flour into the pan and mix well to incorporate it into the butter and remove any clumps. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until the flour is cooked and beginning to turn light brown in color.
• Pour in the vegetable stock and heavy cream and stir well to combine. Bring to a simmer and cook for 2-3 minutes, until slightly thickened. Stir in the Parmesan cheese and the remaining ½ teaspoon of salt and cook the cheese until it melts, stirring continuously, about 2 minutes.
• Stir in the lemon juice and spinach. Remove the pan from the heat.
• Using a fine-mesh sieve, strain each egg to remove the outer egg white, the thinner layer of the egg white that tends to spread when an egg is cracked into a pan. Add each egg to its own small bowl.
• Using a ¼ cup (30 g) measure, create 4 divots in the spinach mixture and carefully pour a strained egg into each space. Sprinkle each egg with the pepper and a pinch of Parmesan.
• Return the pan to medium heat and cover. Cook for 5 minutes, until the egg whites are starting to set.
• Meanwhile, turn the broiler to high. Remove the lid from the pan and broil for 2-3 minutes to cook off any excess moisture that may have accumulated and to brown the cheese.
• Remove the pan from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes before serving with toast.
• Enjoy!

CREAMED SPINACH-EGG SKILLET

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F.
• Cook bacon in large ovenproof skillet until crisp. Remove bacon from skillet; drain on paper towels. Discard all but 2 Tbsp. drippings from skillet.
• Add onions to reserved drippings; cook 5 min. or until crisp-tender, stirring frequently. Meanwhile, crumble bacon.
• Reserve 2 Tbsp. bacon for later use. Add remaining bacon to onions along with the spinach, pasta sauce, milk and pepper; stir. Cook 10 min., stirring frequently. Remove from heat.
• Use bottom of 1/3-cup dry measuring cup to make 6 equally spaced wells in spinach mixture. Slip 1 cracked egg into each well.
• Bake 18 to 20 min. or until egg whites are set and yolks are cooked to desired doneness. Meanwhile, place baguette slices in single layer on baking sheet; top with cheese. Add to oven for the last 10 min. of the skillet baking time.
• Top spinach mixture with reserved bacon. Serve with toast slices.

CREAMED SPINACH

Steps:

• Wash the spinach in several changes of water to get rid of any grit. Drain the spinach but keep some of the water clinging to the leaves. Heat the butter and oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the spinach and garlic. Cook, turning frequently, until the spinach has wilted down evenly. Remove the garlic and put the spinach into a colander and let it drain well. Press out as much liquid as you can from the leaves and chop them coarsely.
• Heat the skillet again over medium-high heat and add the cream and nutmeg; cook until it reduces a bit, about 5 minutes. Add the spinach and parmesan and season with salt and pepper. Cook until the spinach is hot, about 5 more minutes. Serve immediately.

BAKED EGGS IN CREAMY SPINACH

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350˚ F.
• Set a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and heat to shimmering, then add the onion and a pinch of salt. Cook until translucent, about 1 minute. Add the spinach and cook until wilted, about 1 minute. Add the cream and bring to a simmer. Add the nutmeg and Parmesan and season with a pinch of salt and a twist of pepper.
• Make 4 shallow depressions in the spinach mixture and carefully crack an egg into each one. Transfer the skillet to the oven and cook until the egg whites are set but the yolks are still runny, about 8 minutes. Serve immediately.

EASY SKILLET CREAMED SPINACH

Steps:

• In a large nonstick skillet, saute onion, mushroom and garlic in bacon grease until soft.
• Season with salt and pepper, and garlic powder if not using fresh garlic.

• After a few minutes when spinach has wilted, add cream and cream cheese and gently stir until cream cheese chunks have melted into the sauce.

CREAMY SCRAMBLED EGGS WITH SPINACH

Steps:

• Whisk together eggs and tarragon in a bowl and season with salt and pepper. Melt butter in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over moderate heat, then cook spinach, stirring occasionally, until just wilted.
• Add egg mixture and cream cheese and cook, stirring slowly, until eggs are just set, about 3 minutes.

BAKED EGGS ON CREAMED SPINACH

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. and butter two 1/3- to 1/2-cup ramekins.
• Discard coarse stems from spinach. In a 2- to 3-quart saucepan of boiling salted water cook spinach 2 minutes and drain in a sieve, pressing with back of a large spoon to remove as much water as possible. Finely chop spinach.
• In a small nonstick skillet cook onion in butter over moderately low heat, stirring, until softened. Stir in spinach, cream, nutmeg, and salt and pepper to taste and cook, stirring, until hot.
• Divide creamed spinach between ramekins and break an egg into each. On a baking sheet bake eggs in upper third of oven until whites are cooked through, or until desired doneness, about 12 minutes. (The yolks will not be fully cooked, which may be of concern if there is a problem with salmonella in your area.)
• Season eggs with salt and pepper and serve immediately.

CREAMED SPINACH DEVILED EGGS

Steps:

• Set a large skillet over medium-high heat with the oil. Once hot, add the shallot and garlic and cook, stirring often, until softened and just beginning to brown, about 3 minutes. Add the chopped spinach, a handful at a time, stirring until wilted through. Continue adding and stirring until all the spinach has been used. Cook until wilted and bright green, about 2 minutes longer.
• Transfer the mixture a large mixing bowl and while it is still hot, add the cream cheese, stirring to allow the cream cheese to soften and melt. Let cool 5 minutes, and then add the mayonnaise, salt, and black pepper.
• Cut the egg in half, lengthwise, and remove the yolks into the bowl with the spinach mixture. Using a fork, mash the yolks into the spinach mixture, making it as smooth as possible. Transfer to a piping bag, or a large plastic food storage bag with the end snipped off, and pipe out the filling into the center of each egg. Top with feta and serve.
