Some days I just feel creative, whipping up a dish based on what I have on hand, no recipe just what sounds good at the moment. Today’s breakfast was one of those dishes, which turned out so yummy I wanted to share with you all. I created a Spinach Cream Sauce With Sun Dried Tomatoes over Egg and Toast.
I grew up loving the boil in bag creamed spinach made by Green Giant. I know, a weird thing for kids to like but it was always a side I wanted my mom to fix. With the memory reminiscing in my mind from childhood I decided to whip up a little spinach cream sauce of my own and then add a little punch by creaming in sun dried tomatoes.
Top this all off on a good seed laced crusty bread and a soft fried egg, you then have a gourmet breakfast in a snap.
