Roasted Leeks With Poached Eggs and Warm Spinach Salad

"This recipe is from Vegetarian Times. I love the flavor of the roasted leeks in this. I leave out the mushrooms and use Parmesan for the cheese since I always have that in the fridge. I just toss the grated cheese with rest of the salad and top each dish with a poached egg. Serve with crusty bread with olive oil for dipping and a nice glass of white wine."

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

When I was little, I wanted to grow up to be a chef. I grew up to be a doctor instead, but I still love to cook and eat! I especially love recipes that make use of fresh vegetables. <img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Iwasadopted.jpg">
