Huevos con Espinacas y Queso is a rich and comforting breakfast dish that combines the creaminess of eggs and cheese with the earthy taste of spinach. The garlic and onions add a pungent flavor, while the Manchego cheese adds a tangy note.

- 1 pound fresh spinach, stems removed and chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
