Creamed Spinach

Most creamed spinach recipes use cream and a roux to make the sauce creamy. I like to use fat free sour cream, light would work too! I still get the creaminess without the guilt.

Ingredients

1 bunch spinach
2 cloves garlic; crushed
1/2 yellow onion; diced
1/4 cup sour cream
1/2 tsp. cayenne pepper
dash of nutmeg
1 Tbls Parmesan cheese



















Directions
Heat 1 tsp. olive oil over medium heat and saute onion and garlic until tender















Add spinach and cover to let steam for about 5-10 minutes.






















Once the spinach has cooked down some you can add all the yumminess! Add the sour cream, the cayenne and nutmeg and then the Parmesan cheese. Taste to make sure seasoning is good and enjoy!
