Ingredients
olive oil
¼ of a large yellow onion, thinly sliced
1-2 cups fresh spinach
2 slices tomato
a slice or two of your favorite deli meat (optional)
2 large eggs
dash of sea salt
dash of black pepper
few dashes Tapatío (or other hot sauce)
pinch of fresh chopped dill, or a few dashes dried
1-2 tsp butter
1 slice Jalapeño cheese (or other sliced cheese)
generous smear of Trader Joe’s Cilantro Chive Yogurt Dip*
2 slices toasted whole wheat bread (or bread of your choosing)
½ ripe avocado, sliced
Instructions
In a small sauté pan, heat a splash of olive oil over medium-low heat, then add the onion and cook until soft. Add the fresh spinach and stir it around with the onions. Add the tomato and a slice or two of deli meat (if using), and cover pan. Keep the covered pan on the burner, but turn off heat.
Whisk together the eggs, sea salt, pepper, Tapatío and dill. In a separate sauté pan, melt butter over medium heat until it starts to foam. Add the eggs and stir gently with a spatula, folding up the edges of the cooked egg from the bottom of the pan. Once scrambled and eggs are nearly set, turn off the heat, gather the eggs into the center of the pan, and place the cheese on top of the eggs. Cover and let cheese melt.
Spread a generous amount of cilantro chive yogurt dip on two pieces of toast. Place the sliced avocado on one piece of toast, along with the onion, spinach, tomato and deli meat (if using). Using a spatula, transfer the egg/cheese mound on top of it all. Sandwich everything together with your second piece of toast, and slice sandwich in half.
