EASY CREAMED SPINACH

SERVES 4

This was an accident. I had planned to make a more traditional creamed spinach with a roux, but I got tied up and ran out of time. So I just added the cream and it turned out great.

INGREDIENTS

1 pound frozen spinach

2 tablespoons butter

1/4 cup finely chopped onions

1 cup cream

1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg

Salt and pepper to taste

Cook the spinach according to package directions in the microwave or range top. Cool; squeeze out excess moisture. Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onions and sauté until softened. Add the spinach; cover and cook just until hot. Reduce heat to medium-low. Add the cream, nutmeg, salt, pepper and an additional tablespoon of butter if desired. Stir just until hot and the butter has melted. Serve immediately.
