I don't know who Joe is, but this is delicious! I've adopted this recipe and tweaked it to make it fresher and a little healthier. I love the garlicky spinach in this one. :)

Ingredients For joe's special

  • 1 lb
    ground beef (or ground turkey to make it even healthier)
  • 1
    (9 oz. bag) fresh baby spinach leaves (add more if you like)
  • 1-2 Tbsp
    olive oil
  • 1
    small onion, diced
  • 1/2 tsp
    basil
  • 1/2 tsp
    oregano
  • 2 tsp
    garlic powder or adobo brand seasoning (more if you like garlic!)
  • 1/4 tsp
    salt
  • 1/4 tsp
    black pepper
  • 2-3
    eggs (adjust to your liking)
  • sliced mushrooms (optional)

How To Make joe's special

  • 1
    Spray skillet with non-stick cooking spray.
  • 2
    Add ground beef and cook, stirring, until browned and crumbly. Drain well in a colander.
  • 3
    Add onion to the skillet and cook until tender but not browned.
  • 4
    Stir in basil, oregano, salt and pepper.
  • 5
    Add spinach leaves, drizzle with olive oil, then add Adobo (garlic powder) and cook until spinach has reduced down. (Seems like a lot of spinach, but it cooks way down. If necessary, do it in batches)
  • 6
    Add beef to spinach & onion mixture.
  • 7
    Beat eggs, add to skillet and cook, stirring, until eggs are set.
  • 8
    This makes a healthy main dish, or can be a side dish if serving more people.
