Creamed Spinach
Creamed Spinach
This can be changed to fit your taste.
1 box frozen chopped spinach, microwave, press all the water out of spinach
In sauce pan over medium heat, melt about 1/2 stick butter, saute about 2 tablespoons finely chopped onion and 1 finely minced garlic in the butter, add about 1 cup sour cream, add 8 ounces grated cheese. Heat till cheese melts, add Tabasco, and fold in well drained spinach. You can eat it as is or put in buttered dish and bake at 300 to 350 degrees till heated thru. If you bake it, you could mix a little parmesan cheese and some ground up pork rinds for a crispy topping.
The kind of cheese you use is strictly up to you. Sharp cheddar is very good or for a real Italian taste add parmesan and/or romano, or a mixture of whatever kind of cheeses you have on hand. The garlic and Tabasco are optional. The cheese will probably make this salty enough without adding additional salt but you should taste it to determine.
Another way to make creamed spinach is to add some olive oil to a skillet, saute some garlic in it, add fresh spinach and saute till wilted down. Add parmesan cheese.
