Egg and Spinach Open Faced Sandwiches

Egg and Spinach Open Faced Sandwiches

Things to know about me:

1. I am not a fancy cook. Not at all. I could be if I wanted to, but I really like making uncomplicated things. This sandwich is one of them.

2. I will eat cold sandwiches, but I really, really like hot sandwiches with crusty or toasted bread.

I make these Egg and Spinach Open Faced Sandwiches for breakfast or lunch. I like them that much and I will eat breakfast at any meal. Also, this is a good way to get in your greens!

Gather your ingredients. Since I was making this for lunch I used 3 eggs. Sometimes I only use 2 eggs. I stuffed a sandwich sized baggie full of spinach. I also used 2 pieces of bread, but I have also been known to use leftover baked potatoes instead of bread. I also used a liberal amount of butter and some salt, but you can also use coconut oil and whatever seasoning you love.


Start by getting your skillet hot and add butter to melt. Drop your 2 slices of bread in the toaster.


Add your spinach to the skillet. Put it all in there. If you are using a small skillet like I was, the spinach will still fit.


When the toaster is done, butter the toast. All toast should be buttered. Always. 

Add the spinach on top of the buttered toast.


Add more butter to the skillet and let it melt and get bubbly.


Add the eggs. You might want to use a bigger skillet than I did, but I was at work using what I had available to me.


When your eggs are done to your satisfaction (scrambled, fried, sunny side up, soft), put them on top of the spinach and eggs. I left my eggs soft with runny yolks. 


Dig in! This is not a dish best left cold! Salt or season them as you prefer and go to town on that sandwich. 

This is a relatively healthy sandwich that quick and easy to make! My favorite kind of dish!
