Inspired by the Joe’s Special from all of the local Original Joe’s resturants, this is a simple combination of veggies and ground meat. The fixtures are onions, spinach, and meat, and then, mix up the rest to your own tastes!

Prep time: 15 minutes

Cooking time: 15 minutes

Yield: 6-8 servings

Ingredients:

• 2 pounds ground meat (I used ground beef, but feel free to mix it up)
• 1 large bunch of spinach
• 2 red onions
• 2 jalapenos
• 2 serranos
• 1 habanero (optional)
• 2-4 cloves of garlic
• 1 tsp salt
• 2 tsp fresh ground black pepper
• 1 tsp cumin
• 1 tsp spicy paprika
• 1 tsp cayanne pepper or hot pepper flakes
• 2 tsp Olive Oil
• 1 Tbsp Parmasean

Directions:

• Roughly chop onions and peppers and garlic
• Over medium-high heat, add Olive Oil to a large deep pan (a cast iron skillet is ideal) and brown the ground meat
• Reduce heat to medium, add all the spices, onions and peppers, mix and cook until onion becomes translucent
• Add and mix in spinach, cook until spinach reduces a bit
• Serve up, sprinkle on some parmasean if you like that sort of thing.

Goes well with rice (or cauliflower rice), and/or crusty bread and a cool green salad.
