This is a revised and improved version.  For several years, I used fresh spinach to make this egg recipe.  But then, I realized that it took more work and the shelf life of fresh veggie definitely put some time limit on it.  One day, I decided to use the frozen one.  It turned out really great.  The recipe surely is more versatile. 

TIPS & TRICKS

Feel free to use fresh spinach if that's your preference.

You can add up to a dozen eggs into this eggs and spinach healthy recipe.  For 2 big servings, I use 6 eggs so that there is more spinach in every bite.

Adding bacon bits is optional.  You can even add freshly cooked bacon by crumbling it on top of eggs.  Best of all, adding this ingredient still makes it a low carb meal.

2. Preheat a skillet at medium high heat with a tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil.
3. Stir in spinach into the skillet; use spatula to spread it out evenly and cook for 2 minutes until spinach is warm through.
4. Add the rest of extra virgin olive oil and then eggs.  (Do not disturb the eggs until you see edges started to solidified.  The middle will still be very runny and nowhere close to be cooked.)
