Make Baked Eggs in Creamed Spinach

Like spaghetti and meatballs, this tasty brunch entree is the serendipitous coupling of two dishes: baked eggs and creamed spinach. The eggs gently poach in a well of hot creamy spinach until the whites are just set and the yolks thicken into a golden sauce.
On the surface, the Gruyere in the spinach browns to form a savory crust that you'll wish you had more.
Because it involves a number of components, this isn't a quick breakfast, but the good news is that you can make the creamed spinach in advance. Better yet, if you're having creamed spinach the night before just make an extra large batch and save the leftovers for this luscious brunch the next day.
As with any baked egg recipe, be sure to have lots of crusty toasted bread at the ready to dip into the decadent green, gold, and white sauce that lurks just under the surface.
