Method
Preheat oven to broil. In a 10 inch cast iron skillet, or any oven proof skillet, over medium high heat, melt butter. Add onion and saute until translucent, 4-5 minutes. Add spinach and cook one minute, stirring constantly, then remove from heat. In a medium mixing bowl, with a wire whisk, beat eggs. Add ham, salt, pepper, garlic powder and Tabasco sauce, then stir until blended. Fold in spinach and onion mixture. Reduce stove top heat to medium and gently pour egg and spinach mixture into skillet. Cook over medium heat until bottom of egg mixture is set and about half cooked through, then remove from heat. Top with shredded Swiss cheese. Place under broiler and finish cooking until eggs are set and cheese is brown and bubbly, about 5 minutes. Remove from oven and immediately top with fresh ground Parmesan cheese. Allow to cool 5 minutes before cutting and serving.
