In a mixing bowl, beat together the eggs, one dash of salt and one dash of cayenne pepper until mixture is frothy. Pour into skillet. Allow the egg to set, making sure to lift the edges frequently and allow uncooked portion to run under the cooked portion. Continue until egg appears glossy and cooked, but still moist. Add the cup of spinach and 2 tablespoons of red pepper relish, topping with cheese and chives.
