Ingredients
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 medium yellow onion, chopped
1 red bell pepper, cored, seeded, and diced
1 green bell pepper, cored, seeded, and diced
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
4 cups fresh spinach
8 large Oakdell Eggs
1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
1 tablespoon fresh chives, minced
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
Optional: 1/4 cup shredded cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese
Instructions
1
Prep the Veggies: Start by chopping your onion, dicing the bell peppers, and halving the cherry tomatoes. Have your fresh spinach and herbs ready to go.
2
Sauté Aromatics: Heat the olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet (like a cast iron pan) over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until it starts to soften.
3
Add Peppers and Tomatoes: Stir in the diced red and green bell peppers and the halved cherry tomatoes. Cook for another 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the peppers are tender-crisp.
4
Wilt the Spinach: Add the fresh spinach to the skillet. It might look like a lot, but it will wilt down quickly. Stir until the spinach has completely wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Season the vegetables with garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
5
Crack the Eggs: Make 8 small wells in the vegetable mixture in the skillet. Carefully crack one Oakdell Egg into each well.
6
Cook the Eggs: Cover the skillet with a lid or aluminum foil and cook for 5-8 minutes, or until the egg whites are set and the yolks are cooked to your liking (runny, jammy, or firm). For an extra golden touch, you can briefly place the skillet under a broiler for 1-2 minutes until the yolks are slightly golden and the cheese (if using) is bubbly.
7
Finish with Herbs: Once the eggs are cooked, remove the skillet from the heat. Sprinkle generously with the fresh chopped parsley, dill, and chives.
8
Serve Hot: Carefully dish out portions directly from the skillet.
