Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 6 servings

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • 2 pounds ground beef

  • 2 medium onions, chopped

  • 1 (8 ounce) package sliced fresh mushrooms

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained

  • ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg

  • ½ teaspoon dried oregano

  • salt and pepper to taste

  • 6 large eggs, beaten

Directions

  1. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground beef; cook and stir until browned and crumbly, about 8 minutes. Pour off any excess grease, then stir in onions, mushrooms, and garlic. Reduce the heat to medium, cover, and cook until onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in spinach, nutmeg, oregano, salt, and pepper; cook until spinach is heated through, 3 to 4 minutes.

  2. Reduce the heat to medium-low. Add eggs to the skillet; cook and scramble until incorporated with beef and spinach mixture and cooked to your liking, 4 to 6 minutes.

Cook’s Note

For an alternate version that's not scrambled, after reducing the heat in Step 2, use the back of a spoon to make six wells in the beef and spinach mixture. Crack an egg into each well; cover and cook until eggs are done to your liking, 4 to 6 minutes.
