Step-By-Step Instructions:

  1. Spray a nonstick oven-proof skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium heat. Add ham slices and cook for 1 minute per side. Remove from pan and set aside.

  2. Spray the pan with cooking spray and add the olive oil. Add the spinach to the pan and sauté until wilted. Sprinkle with garlic powder and pepper and combine well. Remove from the pan and set aside.  

  3. Crack the eggs into the pan; break the yolk with a spatula to make it run. Cook until the egg starts to firm, about 30 – 60 seconds. Flip the egg and continue cooking until done. 

  4. Place an egg on one half of each sandwich thin, top with a slice of ham and ¼ of the spinach. Top with the other half of the sandwich thin.
