    Default Joe's Special

    Joe's Special

    4 servings
    1 tbl butter or olive oil (I use a half and half mix)
    1 chopped onion
    4 oz mushrooms or more if you like (baby bellas work great)
    1 lb lean ground turkey (I use the 93/7) or lean ground beef (I use the 95/5)
    1 bag spinach
    2 cloves garlic, smashed or chopped
    6 eggs, lightly beaten

    Saute the onions and mushrooms in the butter until a light golden brown or until well softened. Add the ground turkey and cook until no longer pink. Add the garlic & bag of spinach and cook until the spinach wilts. Add the eggs and cook until firm-salt & pepper to taste. I usually add a good splash of hot sauce.

    For an Asian twist I will add ginger, sesame oil & soy sauce. Sometimes I make the basic recipe and pour a little marinara over it and a sprinkle of parmesan. It is a mild recipe that stands up well to whatever seasonings you like. Oh and it's great leftover for breakfast.

    This sounds yummy Lisa, and it doesn't even have cream cheese in it.
