Ingredients:

• 1 cup packed fresh spinach greens, washed and dried
• 1 cup fresh basil leaves
• 1 clove garlic, chopped
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan, optional
•  2 tablespoons olive oil
• Salt, to taste
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 1 cup fresh spinach greens, washed and dried
• 1/2 cup ham, diced
• 4 eggs, whisked with a little milk or cream
• Salt and freshly cracked black pepper

Directions:

Add the spinach, basil, garlic, and cheese, if using, to a food processor and begin to pulse on low speed. Slowly add the olive oil while the processor is running. Pulse until the ingredients are blended into a smooth sauce, being careful not to overmix. Season, to taste, with salt.

Heat the butter in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the spinach and ham to the skillet, stirring with a wooden spoon to combine. Cook for 2 minutes, and then pour the eggs over the spinach mixture. Allow the eggs to begin to set, and then add a few tablespoons of the pesto, salt, and pepper, to taste. Stir together until eggs are cooked evenly.

Serves 2.
