Fried Egg Over Spinach Quinoa

If you like quinoa, but don't have a variety of recipes to use it in, here's a good one....AND it's for breakfast!  I've made this a few times and really like it.

1 c. baby spinach
1/2 c. cooked quinoa
1 egg
1 tsp. olive oil

Cook the spinach with the cooked quinoa over medium heat until the spinach wilts.  In a separate pan, heat the olive oil and crack the egg into it.  Fry the egg to desired doneness.  Place the fried egg on the quinoa mixture.
