  • Next, add in potatoes, green pepper, mushrooms, garlic, and seasoning. bring heat down to low and cook for 5-7 min while stirring so it doesn't stick on the bottom. Optional you can also drizzle in a bit more olive oil if the potatoes seem a bit dry.
  • Toss in fresh spinach and fold into the potatoes to wilt and cook down for 1-2 min.
  • Flatten everything down evenly with your spatula and create wells for your eggs to sit in.
  • Crack in eggs into the wells, season with sea salt and pepper. Spoon on salsa sauce and then pop a lid on and cook for 3-5 min depending on how cooked you want your eggs.
  • Once cooked remove the lid and sprinkle with green onion and dust on some extra paprika for garnish.
  • Serve right away and enjoy!
