List of Ingredients
1 10 oz pkg frozen chopped spinach
2 tablespoons butter or margarine
2 tablespoons finely chopped onion
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon chicken-flavored bouillon granules
1 cup milk
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 2 oz jar diced pimientos, drained
4 large eggs
1/2 cup (2 oz) shredded cheddar cheese
grated parmesan cheese
3 slices bacon, cooked and crumbledRecipe
Cook spinach according to package directions. Drain; press between paper towels to remove excess moisture. Set spinach aside.
Melt butter in a heavy saucepan over low heat; add onion, and cook until onion is tender. Stir in flour and bouillon granules; cook, stirring constantly, 1 minute. Gradually add milk; cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture is thickened and bubbly. Stir in salt, nutmeg, and pimiento. Add reserved spinach, stirring well.
Spoon spinach mixture into four 6 oz custard cups, spreading up sides of cups. Break 1 egg into each cup. Place cups on a baking sheet, if desired. Cover loosely with foil.
Bake at 350 deg. for 25 to 30 minutes, or until eggs are set. Remove foil. Sprinkle with cheeses and bacon; bake, uncovered, 3 to 5 additional minutes or until cheeses melt. Serves 4
