Warm Potato Egg Salad Skillet with Green Beans, Tomato and Spinach
This Warm Potato Egg Salad Skillet brings together tender baby potatoes, boiled eggs, crisp green beans, juicy tomato, and fresh spinach in a warm, satisfying supper. This easy egg salad recipe is perfect for a quick dinner, light lunch, or wholesome potato salad idea when you want something fresh and filling.
Additional Information
- Can I use regular potatoes? Yes. Use about 1 medium potato in place of the 3 baby potatoes, cut into bite-sized pieces before boiling.
- Can I use frozen green beans? Absolutely. Thaw them first and drain off excess water, then sauté them with the onion.
- Can I use another leafy green? Yes. Baby kale or Swiss chard would work well, although they may need a little extra cooking time.
- Does it need dressing? Not necessarily. The warm tomato and sautéed vegetables add moisture, but a small splash of lemon juice or a drizzle of olive oil can brighten the dish.
- Can I prepare it ahead? You can boil the eggs and potatoes ahead of time, then sauté the vegetables just before serving for the best texture.
- Can This Be Frozen? I wouldn’t recommend freezing the assembled salad. Boiled eggs can become rubbery, while the potatoes and fresh vegetables may lose their pleasant texture after thawing. It’s best enjoyed fresh.
- How Long Can This Be Stored and How? Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Keep the eggs, potatoes and vegetables together or separately, then gently reheat the potatoes and vegetables before serving. Add the spinach after reheating if you’re preparing the dish ahead.
Substitute Suggestions
- Baby potatoes: Use regular white, yellow or red potatoes cut into bite-sized pieces.
- Baby onion: Use 2 tbsp finely sliced shallot or 2 tbsp chopped regular onion.
- Green beans: Try asparagus, peas, broccoli florets or snap peas.
- Tomato: Cherry tomatoes work beautifully, especially when halved.
- Baby spinach: Substitute with baby kale, Swiss chard or arugula. Add arugula right at the end so it only slightly wilts.
- Cooking oil: Use butter, avocado oil or olive oil.
- Boiled eggs: For a different twist, try poached eggs or leftover roasted chicken, although the dish will no longer be vegetarian.

Description
Warm Potato Egg Salad Skillet is one of those simple suppers that comes together without making a big fuss. You’ve got tender potatoes, boiled eggs and a quick sauté of fresh vegetables, all tossed together for a light but satisfying meal
Ingredients
- 2 eggs, boiled, peeled and halved
- 3 baby potatoes, boiled, peeled and halved
- 1 baby onion, thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup green beans, trimmed and cut into bite sized pieces
- 1 tomato, cubed
- 1/4 cup baby spinach
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 tsp cooking oil, for sautéing
Instructions
- Boil 2 eggs until they’re cooked to your liking, then peel and halve them.
- Boil 3 baby potatoes until fork-tender, then peel and halve them. Don’t overcook the potatoes or they’ll fall apart when you assemble the salad.
- Heat 1 tsp cooking oil in a frying pan over medium heat.
- Add 1 sliced baby onion and 1/4 cup green beans, then sauté for about 6 minutes, stirring now and then, until the onion has softened and the beans are tender crisp.
- . Stir in 1 cubed tomato and cook for another 4 minutes.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste. The tomato should soften a little but still hold some shape.
- Remove the pan from the heat and immediately add 1/4 cup baby spinach. Mix well so the leftover heat gently wilts the spinach. It doesn’t need much cooking.
- Arrange the 3 halved baby potatoes on a plate, spoon over the warm vegetables and add the 2 halved boiled eggs.
- Give everything another little sprinkle of salt and pepper, to taste, and serve straight away while it’s warm.
