Eating eggs with leafy greens is one of my favorite things to eat for brunch. . heck, I’d eat this for any meal of the day, it’s so delicious .. and so easy to make!
And I don’t know about you. . but I love a good, runny egg. Oh man, eggs are my weakness . .
And when they are cooked just right, eggs are like creamy butter. So freaking delicious!
You have to try this recipe!
Fried Eggs with Kale and Mushrooms
Ingredients
- 1 to 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 bunch organic kale chopped
- ½ small onion diced
- 8 oz. package mushrooms sliced
- 1 to 2 cloves garlic minced (optional)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 4 large eggs
- ¼ cup cheddar cheese freshly grated
- Serve with salsa and roasted breakfast potatoes
Instructions
- Using a large non-stick skillet over medium high heat, heat the olive oil. After a minute or so, add the kale, onions, mushrooms and garlic and sauté until tender, for about 5 to 6 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Turn the heat to medium-low, and crack the eggs into the pan, on top of the sautéed kale and spinach. Alternatively, you can push the greens to make 4 wells and crack the eggs into each well. Cover with the lid and let cook for about 4 minutes, or until the yolk is cooked to the desired level of doneness, but I would not cook the egg for longer than 5 to 6 minutes.
- Remove from the heat, and sprinkle on the freshly grated cheddar cheese. Serve with salsa and roasted potatoes. Enjoy.
