Easy Sautéed Spinach

Greetings all!

If you want to add more spinach to your life (and who doesn't!), here is a wonderful easy recipe!

Ingredients:

  • 2 large bunches spinach, about 1 pound
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, sliced (optional)
  • Salt to taste
  • Butter (optional)

Directions:

  • Clean and drain spinach.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet on medium high heat.
  • (Optional) Add the garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds, until the garlic just begins to brown.
  • Add the spinach to the pan, packing it down a bit if you need to with your hand. Use a couple of spatulas (or tongs) to lift the spinach and turn it over in the pan, so you coat more of it with the olive oil and garlic. Do this a couple of times. Cover the pan and cook for 1 minute. Uncover and turn the spinach over again. Cover the pan and cook for an additional minute. I really liked this detailed instruction!
  • Remove from heat and drain the excess liquid.
  • Sprinkle with salt to taste. 
  • (Optional) Top with butter.

Bon Appetit! Let me know how you like it!
