====Description====
Great side dish for Passover


====Ingredients====
  *Large Yukon gold potatoes: 4
  *Salt: 1 tsp, divided \\ \\ 
  *Frozen spinach: 4 cups, thawed
  *Olive oil: 4 tbsp \\ \\ 
  *Garlic powder: 2.5 tsp, divided
  *Onion powder: 2.5 tsp, divided \\ \\ 
  *Pepper: 1/2 tsp \\ \\ 
  *Vegetable oil: 4 tsp \\ \\ 
  *Eggs: 4 large

====Notes====
  *It's very important to use Yukon gold potatoes
  *Probably not enough seasoning is called for in the recipe; next time I make it, I'll measure what I use and update. Definitely use more salt than is called for

====Instructions====
  -Preheat oven to 400F
  -Grate the potatoes, add 1/2 tsp salt, mix well, let sit in colander for 20 min
  -In large skillet, sauté spinach with olive oil. Cook until most water has evaporated out. Add 2tsp garlic powder, 2 tsp onion powder, 1/2 tsp salt. Set aside
  -Squeeze as much water as possible out of potatoes. Season with 1/2 tsp garlic powder, 1/2 tsp onion powder, and 1/2 tsp pepper. Add vegetable oil and mix well
  -Spray a 12 muffin tin pan with cooking spray. Arrange grated potatoes in each muffin tin, pressing against bottom and up the sides
  -Bake in oven for 15 minutes or until they are lightly brown. Remove from oven and set aside
  -In a medium bowl, beat eggs, a pinch of salt, and spinach; mix until well combined
  -Spoon spinach mixture into potato nests, then bake for 10 - 15 min or until egg is cooked
  -Let cool slightly, then carefully remove with a butter knife
