Directions
The egg baguettes
1. Preheat your oven to 360°F(180°C). Cut the baguette into 2-inch slices. Hollow the slices, keeping the bottom with some bread. Arrange in a baking pan.
2. Crack an egg in a cup and slowly pour it into the hole. You might end up with too much egg white, so keep it apart. Repeat the process with the other slices of bread. Season with salt and pepper and bake for 10-15 minutes, until set, with the yolk cooked to your liking.
The spinach
1. Rinse the spinach and pat it dry. Heat 1 teaspoon olive oil in a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat.
2. Add 3 cups baby spinach and cook, tossing, until wilted, about 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper, stir in 1-2 tablespoons of grated Parmesan, and cook for 1 more minute. Sprinkle with crushed red pepper flakes if you like it. Serve with the egg baguettes.
