2 tablespoons red bell pepper, chopped
1 egg

Instructions
- Before you begin, wash your hands, surfaces, produce, and utensils.
- Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Add oil to frying pan. Sauté spinach and red bell pepper for 3 minutes, or until spinach is wilted.
- Remove vegetable mixture from heat, and place into medium bowl. Crack egg into bowl, and whisk together with spinach, red bell pepper, salt, and black pepper.

- Place the egg patty on the English muffin and top with cheese and sliced avocado.
Tips
- Try using your leftover avocado in the CYP Avocado Chicken Salad
- To preserve the remaining avocado cover with a few drops of lime or lemon juice to prevent browning, and store in an airtight container for up to 48 hours.
