Don't worry if you've never poached an egg before---the dash of vinegar in the water helps this egg white hold its shape.
1 tsp olive oil 1 package (9 ounces) pre-washed spinach 1/3 c fat-free Greek-style yogurt 1/4 c sun-dried tomato pesto (MUFA) 1 tsp vinegar Pinch of salt 4 large eggs 2 whole grain English muffins, split and toasted Freshly ground black pepper
1. Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the spinach and cook (in batches, if necessary) until wilted.
2. Combine the yogurt and pesto. Stir 1/4 c into the spinach and remove from the heat. Cover to keep warm.
3. Meanwhile, heat a medium saucepan containing 1" of water to a boil over high heat. Add the vinegar and salt and reduce the heat to low. Break an egg into a custard cup and gently tip the egg into the water. Repeat with the remaining 3 eggs. Cover and simmer, shaking the pan 2 or 3 times, for 3 to 5 minutes for a soft-cooked yolk or until the whites are completely set and the yolks begin to thicken.
4. Place an English muffin half on each of 4 warm plates. Spoon 1/4 of the spinach onto each muffin. Remove the eggs with a slotted spoon, and drain over paper towels (still in the spoon), before placing on the spinach.
5. Stir 1 Tbsp of the poaching liquid into the yogurt mixture to make it smoother. Spoon evenly over each egg and grind some pepper over the top.

Like your eggs spicy? Add a dash of hot-pepper sauce for more kick.
1 tsp ground cumin 1 can (15 ounces) no-salt added pink beans, rinsed and drained
4 scallions, sliced 1 small red bell pepper, cut into thin strips 1/2 c reduced-sodium chicken broth 2 cloves garlic, minced 4 eggs 1 c sliced avocado (MUFA) 4 Tbsp fat-free Greek-style yogurt 4 Tbsp salsa 8 (6") corn tortillas, toasted Dash of hot-pepper sauce
1. Heat a 10" nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the cumin and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 30 seconds or until fragrant. Add the beans, scallions, bell pepper, broth, and garlic. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat so the mixture simmers. Cook for 8 minutes or until the vegetables are tender and most of the broth is evaporated.

3. Scoop each portion of egg-topped bean mixture onto a plate. Scatter the avocado slices over and around the beans. Top each serving with 1Tbsp of the yogurt and 1Tbsp of the salsa. Serve with the tortillas and hot-pepper sauce, if desired.
