Time 40m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons olive oil
2 pounds ground beef
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 onions, chopped
1 (8 ounce) package sliced fresh mushrooms
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
½ teaspoon dried oregano
1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 large eggs
Splash or two of Tabasco or other hot pepper sauce
1 teaspoon salt or more to taste
1/2 teaspoon dried basil or oregano
1/2 teaspoon freshly milled black pepper or more to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 medium yellow onion, diced
1/2 pound lean freshly ground beef, preferably chili grind (a bit coarser than hamburger grind)
3/4 to 1 pound fresh spinach, preferably the crinkly savoy variety, trimmed of stems and chopped, or one 10-ounce package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained

Steps:

  • Crack the eggs into a small bowl and add the Tabasco, salt, basil, and pepper. Whisk just enough to combine; you should still see large bubbles. Set aside.
  • Warm the oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat until the butter melts. Add the onion and sauté until soft but not beginning to brown, about 4 minutes. Add the ground beef and continue cooking until uniformly brown, breaking the meat into small pieces as it cooks. Cover with the spinach, place a lid over the mixture, and cook for about 3 minutes, just until the spinach wilts. (If using frozen spinach, cook, covered, for 1 minute, just to take off its raw edge.)
  • Stir the spinach into the meat, cooking briefly to eliminate excess liquid if the mixture seems watery. Pour the egg mixture over all, stirring with a spatula from the bottom until the eggs begin to set. Remove from the heat and stir a few more times, as the eggs cook through from the residual heat. Serve immediately.

A REAL SAN FRANCISCO TREAT: JOE'S SPECIAL



A Real San Francisco Treat: Joe's Special image

Joe's Special is comfort food, plain and simple, made of onion, spinach, ground sirloin and eggs. It's an old recipe that makes the type of food we like to cook today -- hearty and healthful, quick and easy. It was introduced in San Francisco in the 1920s. There are many versions of this recipe but none on this site just like this one. Serve Joe's Special as a lunch or dinner meal, but it can also be a protein-filled breakfast dish, often with hash browns and toast on the side. Recipe is from our local food writer, Jan D'Atri.

JOE'S SPECIAL BEEF AND SPINACH SCRAMBLE



Joe's Special Beef and Spinach Scramble image

This mammoth plate of food features three eggs, a half-pound of meat, and more than enough spinach. Apparently a late-night patron requested his spinach omelet include a hamburger patty, and this is what happened. In respect to good ol' made-up 'Joe,' I've kept the original portions, so feel free to share with a friend or three. This version is mostly meat and spinach, but if you want something closer to a classic scramble, then cut the beef and spinach amounts in half. This is how most restaurants that copy the recipe do it!

Categories     Scrambled Eggs

Time 30m

Yield 1

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 eggs, beaten
1 teaspoon chopped fresh basil
1 teaspoon chopped fresh oregano
1 tablespoon olive oil
⅓ cup diced onion
salt and ground black pepper to taste
½ cup sliced mushrooms
½ pound lean ground chuck
½ cup cooked chopped spinach, squeezed dry, or more to taste
2 tablespoons grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, or more to taste

Steps:

  • Beat eggs, basil, and oregano together in a bowl.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Saute onions with a pinch of salt in hot oil until onion is translucent, 4 to 6 minutes; add mushrooms with another pinch of salt. Saute mushrooms and onion until mushrooms are soft and brown around the edges, 4 to 6 minutes more.
  • Stir ground beef, pepper, and salt into the mushroom mixture. Cook and stir until meat is lightly browned and crumbly, 1 to 3 minutes. Turn off the heat. Push all meat to one side of the skillet and tilt the skillet so that the excess grease runs down to the bottom of the pan. Use a paper towel to blot the grease.
  • Stir spinach into beef mixture and cook over medium heat until spinach is heated through, about 1 minute. Add eggs; cook and stir until eggs are set, 3 to 4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and top with Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese.

Tips for Making the Best Beef and Spinach Scramble:

  • Choose high-quality ingredients. This means using fresh, organic vegetables and grass-fed beef. The better the ingredients, the better the scramble will taste.
  • Cook the beef properly. The beef should be cooked through but still juicy. Overcooked beef will be tough and dry.
  • Don't overcook the eggs. The eggs should be cooked until they are just set. Overcooked eggs will be rubbery.
  • Season the scramble to taste. Use salt, pepper, and other spices to your liking.
  • Serve the scramble immediately. This dish is best enjoyed fresh out of the pan.

Conclusion:

This beef and spinach scramble is a delicious and nutritious breakfast option. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy breakfast, give this recipe a try!
