| 1 cup fresh spinach (about 1-2 oz) |
Coarsely chop spinach |
| 1 avacado |
quarter and peel the avacado, the slice the quarters into 1/4 inch wedges |
|
1 medium to large onion (about 3/4-1 cup)
|
Chop. Saute in heavy cast-iron skillet until browned. Set aside in bowl.
|
1 medium potato
chopped spinach

spinach and onion, and mix briefly.

| egg mixture |
Turn on a high fire. When everything is sizzling, pour the eggs over the vegetables. Let them cook until mostly set (only a minute or two). If you're feeling ambitious, lift up the edge and let some of the liquid egg run under to cook.
Turn the fire off. |
avacado slices
1 cup medium-packed grated cheddar cheese (about 4 oz) |
Lay the avacado slices out on top of the mostly-set eggs. Sprinkle a heavy layer of cheese over the avacado. Put the pan under the broiler until the eggs are fully set and the cheese is melted and bubbling, 3 minutes for me. If your broiler is hotter or colder your timing will vary - keep an eye on it. Slice and serve. |
