¼ cup green bell pepper, seeded, de-ribbed, and finely chopped

1½ cups grated carrots

1 teaspoon sea salt

Freshly ground black pepper

Vegetable oil, for sautéing

In medium sauté pan, sauté onion, green pepper, celery, and carrots in butter. Add spinach. Set aside to cool. Combine eggs with breadcrumbs, salt, and pepper. Add to spinach mixture. Place batter in a medium bowl and refrigerate 15 minutes. Preheat ¼ cup oil in a sauté pan.
