STRANGE COMBINATION, BUT THEY GO TOGETHER SO WELL

By
Real Estate Agent with Johnson Real Estate, Inc. RES.0761759

Not many people think spinach and cream cheese go together well, but they do.  When I was on Cape Cod..years ago, I went out for breakfast and the restaurant had a spinach and cream cheese omelette special.  Just the combination interested my palette.  I now make it on a regular basis and thought I would pass it along.

I'm on a food/recipe kick lately, I must be in the mood to cook.  I will post more related *real estate* issues soon too.

2 Tbs Butter or Margarine

2 Eggs (scrambled)

A pinch of nutmeg

4 oz Philadelphia Cream Cheese (sliced)

¼ Cup Fresh Spinach or ½ cup frozen (prepare as stated on box)

½ Cup Diced Tomato (optional)

Salt and Pepper to taste

Heat butter in pan.  Scramble eggs and add nutmeg.  Pour scrambled eggs into pan; and flip when able to.  Put sliced cream cheese one one side and cover with spinach.  Fold the other side of omelette over spinach.  Sprinkle diced tomato over omelette and serve hot.

Valerie, OK I might try spinach and cheddar cheese or swiss cheese, but I don't know about cream cheese.  I am going to have to think about this one.

Kara. I'm glad you like my recipes too.  I have SOOOO many I could just blog recipes, but I feel I should also post to a real estate blog too. Afterall, that is what we are here for.. right?  I hope you make the omelette some day.  If you do, let me know what you think of it.

Patty, I would have never thought of combining these two ingredients until it was brought to my attention.  Since then, I've never looked back.  The spinach enhances the cream cheese and visa versa.  I will keep recipes coming (and I'll post to the real estate blogs too), because REALTORS do need to eat too.
