- 3 TBSP Butter
- 1 TBSP flour
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 TBSP lemon juice
- ½ tsp flaky kosher salt
- ¼ tsp freshly ground pepper

Instructions
- In a 10” cast iron skillet or large sauté pan, melt butter over medium heat. Add in flour and brown for 1 to 2 minutes.
- Slowly pour in milk and cream, in small increments at first, then steadily adding more and simmer, stirring frequently, until the sauce thickens, about 10 minutes.
- Add in Parmesan cheese, lemon juice, salt, pepper, and nutmeg and stir to combine. Then add in the chopped spinach and allow to wilt for a few minutes, stirring often.
- Crack an egg into five evenly spaced spots in the skillet, cover with a lid, and cook until the egg whites are no longer translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
- Serve immediately, spooned onto plates with crusty bread, English muffins, or biscuits.
