    Great recipe. My sauce also had the problem of being pretty runny , but I cooked it down and added the cheese while it was on the stove and it thickened up nicely. I like the tomato, but agree with the others in that an english muffin could be easily substituted.

    Very Good! My sauce was a little runny so next time I will let the cream get to room temperature and put the cheese in while on stove top.

    I made this for my husband on Father's Day. It was great! The spinach/sauce is so delicious. I didn't use the tomatoes but instead did it on bread. I tried to poach an egg like in the directions, but I don't think my water was hot enough, so my test egg didn't come out quite right. I decided to use a store-bought egg poacher instead for the sake of time. This recipe is definitely a "keeper" and we'll be having it for breakfast again I am sure. It's very yummy :

    Excellent recipe. Made this for breakfast this morning and almost didn't make it to the table because the spinach and cream sauce was so good I couldn't stop tasting it. The egg poaching wasn't an issue and they all came out perfectly. I served the dish on a white plate just like Giada did on the Food Network Sunday Brunch episode she did showing this recipe. I plan to make this in the future and it has become a favorite after only one try. Thanks Giada! AWESOME RECIPE!!

    Made this yesterday for brunch and LOVED IT! Since I did not have Prosciutto - I used regular bacon instead... and it still tasted good! =

    THIS REVIEW IS ONLY FOR POACHING THE EGGS:
    I just watched this on TV and wanted to try and poach an egg for the first time. Heat the water to simmering and do exactly what she does on TV: create like a "whirlpool" and dump the egg in the water. Voila! I didn't add any salt or lemon to the water. I took the egg out w/ a spider and put some salt & pepper on it. Tasted delicious! I can't wait to make this for breakfast. :

    I didn't have any trouble poaching the eggs like people mentioned in previous comments... I followed the directions exactly on the egg and it worked very well. I actually loved the egg & spinach on top of a thick tomato, but this would taste great on an english muffin, too. Great recipe!

    Everyone is having trouble poaching the eggs because you need VINEGAR in the water, not lemon! Add a couple of tablespoons to the water and give a stir and get it moving before you drop in the egg (s. And when they're done, just dab the slotted spoon you take them out with on a paper towel so you don't lose the egg. The tomato and onion in this is totally wrong, and makes for a crunchy onion and tomato taste. No onion, no tomato! Use onion powder instead if you must have the flavor.

    Thanks to Giada, I've learned how to poach an egg (I'm a newbie. I've made this now several times. One of the times, I used an heirloom tomato because I love them in other recipes. However, I think heirloom tomatoes don't work well with these flavors. Stick to the suggested tomato.
