Joe's special, a medley of ground beef, spinach and eggs, first made famous in San Francisco
Servings: 4
Ingredients
- olive oil
- 1 small onion diced
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1/4 teaspoon red chili flakes
- few sprigs fresh thyme or 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme or oregano
- 1 bunch fresh spinach can use frozen, but must thaw and drain first
- 4 eggs
- 1/4 cup parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Saute onion until softened. Add in garlic and cook for one minute.
- Add in ground beef and stir fry with onion and garlic until cooked through.
- Add in salt, pepper, chili flakes and herbs.
- Add in big handfuls of spinach. If frozen using my method, just add in frozen at this point. Spinach will soften right way.

Freeze Spinach
- Wash, dry thoroughly. This is important. Once dry, place in plastic bags, freeze.
