This is a very good healthy food recipe for breakfast. I actually skipped out the mushrooms, but the official recipe is with it. Here it is:
Ingredients:
- 4 large free-range chicken eggs
- 1 tsp light vinegar, (rice, white wine, or apple cider)
- 1 TBS chicken or vegetable broth
- ½ medium onion, chopped
- 2 cups sliced crimini mushrooms
- 1 medium tomato, seeds and excess pulp removed, chopped
- 3 medium cloves garlic, chopped
- 10oz package frozen spinach, thawed and excess water removed
- salt and black pepper to taste
- Bring water to a high simmer in a 10-inch skillet with 1 tsp of vinegar.
- In a separate skillet heat 1 TBS broth. Healthy Sauté onion and mushrooms in broth for 5 minutes over medium heat stirring frequently.
- Add tomato, garlic, spinach, salt and pepper and sauté for another 2-3 minutes.
- When water comes to a high simmer poach eggs for about 5 minutes, or until whites are firm. Remove from water with a slotted spoon and place over spinach mixture.
Make sure you do not add any salt to the poaching water for the eggs. The salt has a tendency to dissolve the egg whites.
Nice recipe and a great way to start the day. I’ll have to give it a try now that I’ve found a fab place for delicious eggs.

Hi there!
This sounds great! I loved poached eggs.
I have a tip for your readers. If you add just a hint, meaning about 1/2 tsp of vinegar or an acid like lemon juice to the water you poach your egg in, it will help coagulate the whites and keep the egg together, yet still be tasteless.
It works great!
