Spinach and Sausage Hash

Mmm...I had this for lunch today:
 It's Spinach and Sausage Hash.  This is what I used to make it:

Extra-virgin Olive Oil
3 medium potatoes, peeled and cubed
1/2 medium onion, chopped
1lb turkey breakfast sausage
handful of fresh spinach
Kosher salt and fresh ground pepper to taste
Fresh nutmeg

This is how I made it:

Drizzle about a tablespoon of Extra-Virgin Olive Oil in a large skillet.  Brown the potatoes, leave them in the pan without stirring much at first.  In a separate skillet, brown the sausage (you can cook it part way, and then throw it in w/the potatoes about half way through).  Once the potatoes are browned pretty well on one side, stir them and then add the onion.  You can add the sausage to the potato mixture at this point.  Continue cooking until the sausage is cooked all the way through.  Add the spinach (you can add more than a handful if you like- I probably will next time!) Stir the mixture until the spinach cooks down some.  Add salt and pepper to taste and then add the fresh nutmeg (you can use the pre-ground stuff if that's all you have) (Use a rasp if you have one, or use the pokey side of a box grater if you don't have a rasp.)  

If you feel like sharing, this will probably serve 3-4...obviously, if you want to serve it for dinner you can adjust the amounts of the ingredients!
