EGGS FLORENTINE CUPS

Eggs Florentine Cups image

I'm always looking for creative ways to use up the baby spinach I have in my fridge. I'm also a fanatic about making sure my children get a nutritious breakfast. So I make these up the night before, bake them in the morning and breakfast is done! If there are any leftovers, I reheat them for a quick lunch or dinner. -Jan Charles, Greeneville, TN
