This recipe was submitted to the site back in 2004 by "Leprechaun Katie" (nice user name). It's now bordering on St. Patrick's Day 2013 and I finally decided to give it a try. I added 2 Tablespoons of chopped jalapeno pepper, 1/2 of a green pepper and 2 chopped green onions in with the spinach. It's St. Patricks's Day. Go green or go home, right? Long story short, I liked this recipe. It was easy. It was tasty. And it was streaked with lots of beautiful green.

This baked egg casserole gets a lot of green color from spinach. Garnish with a chopped green herb like parsley to make it even more green for St. Patrick's Day.
