Ingredients

    cooking spray, nonstick, light
    3 clove(s) garlic, minced
    10 ounce(s) spinach, packaged and prewashed, washed again
    salt, to taste
    3 ounce(s) vinegar, white
    4 large egg(s)
    2 large tomato(es), sliced
    4 English muffin, whole wheat, toasted
    4 slices turkey bacon
    freshly ground pepper, to taste

Directions

Preparation

Coat a medium sauté pan with nonstick cooking spray and heat on medium. Heat garlic until slightly tender, add the spinach, and cook until soft, adding a pinch of salt if desired.
Bring 2 quarts of water and vinegar to a slow boil in a medium saucepan. Crack open an egg in a small bowl or cup to ensure that there aren't any pieces of shell in the yolk or white. With a wooden spoon, quickly stir the liquid in the pot to create a spiral, or "tornado," gently pour the egg into the center of the tornado, and stop stirring. Remove the egg with a slotted spoon when it looks like it has cooked through. Repeat with the remaining 3 eggs.

Place tomato slices on toasted muffin halves, followed by the desired amount of spinach, and top with egg and black pepper to taste. Serve with one cooked slice of turkey bacon. per serving.
