Easy and quick spinach poached eggs made with tomato are perfect for breakfast.
If you are looking for a quick and healthy breakfast ideas you came to the right place. I will definitely share more healthy recipes. Actually, I’m really focused on healthy eating lately. Many healthy and interesting recipes will show up here on Ilona’s Passion.
I’ve made these eggs when I was on diet. They were satisfying and full of vegetables like spinach, tomato and parsley. Perfect start of the day. I skipped bread and that’s why I decided to make 2 eggs instead of a one. It was perfect breakfast for me and I still make it for myself.
I like all kinds of eggs.. poached, scrambled, hard-boiled etc. They add lots of protein to the diet. I’m also a spinach fanatic .. therefore eggs + spinach = great combination. Tomato is perfect with eggs too.
I remember when my grandma used to make scrambled eggs with tomato. It was very good and I make it sometimes. I usually peel my tomato before cooking with eggs. I don’t really like cooked tomato with hard skin on it. If it’s raw it’s fine for me but cooked tomato skin is not really tasty for me. If you need a great tip to peel tomato skin easily I’ll tell you, just pour some boiling water on the tomato, leave for couple seconds and peel it with knife. How easy and convenient. Very useful trick in the kitchen that you can try in your kitchen:)

Poached eggs are the best, always so velvety! This is a great healthy combination.

I’ve already eaten breakfast but I could totally go for these eggs. Guess I know what’s for lunch! We used to make poached eggs all the time as kids in one of those little pans. I always thought you had to have that special pan to do it. I recently made some in boiling vinegar water but this looks much easier.

Thank you Leilani!

This looks delicious and I’ll definitely be trying it out this weekend. There aren’t poached eggs though. To poach something is to cook it in a simmering liquid. Unless there’s something missing from the cooking instructions?
Ilona
You’re right Erica, maybe I shouldn’t call them poached eggs. But the sauce from butter and mushroom is made and then you crack eggs on top of it. Eggs simmer a little in this sauce.
