Creamed Spinach and Egg Bread Bowl

cream cheese

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: ricotta cheese

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

parmesan cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: grated mozzarella

Nutritional yeast adds flavor while being lower in calories.

In a large pan, sauté spinach until cooked then place in a strainer to drain excess water.

Melt butter and cook onion until soft. Whisk in flour. Make sure there are no lumps. Add cream and milk, then stir until thickened.

Return spinach to mixture. Add salt, nutmeg and pepper, then stir until fully incorporated.

Hollow out a sourdough bowl, line the hole with mozzarella cheese, then spoon creamed spinach in. Spoon a dip in the middle, then crack an egg in the dip so it doesn’t fall out of the bowl.

Bake at 350˚F / 175˚C for 25 minutes, until the egg is set and the white has solidified.

Season with salt and pepper and enjoy!
