Shirred Eggs with Sausage and Spinach Directions

  1. Place the spinach in a large pot and cover tightly. Cook over high heat for about 2 minutes, until the spinach wilts. Use tongs to thoroughly squeeze out any liquid, then set aside.
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon of butter or ghee in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and sausage, and sauté for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until onions are softened. Stir in the red pepper and sauté for 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Transfer the mixture to a bowl and set aside.
  3. Preheat oven to 425˚F. Melt the remaining 4 tablespoons of butter or ghee and use it to grease a 12-cup muffin pan. Press a slice of ham into each muffin cup, making a little bowl.  Divide the spinach among the 12 muffin cups, then add some of the onion, pepper, and sausage mixture to each. Crack one egg into each muffin cup.
  4. Bake 15-20 minutes, until the eggs are cooked to your liking. Allow to cool for 1-2 minutes, then enjoy.
