    Creamed Spinach


    Source of Recipe


    Unknown

    List of Ingredients





    16 oz frozen chopped spinach
    1 small onion finely chopped
    1 cup of heavy cream
    3 oz cream cheese
    1 Tablespoon butter
    1 Tablespoon olive oil
    1/2 tsp salt
    1/8 tsp pepper
    few dashes of nutmeg

    Defrost the spinach. It's easiest to defrost it in the microwave. Squeeze out all of the liquid from the spinach. In a medium sized pan, heat olive oil and butter and saute the onion until tender. Add the drained spinach, and cook for an additional 5-10 minutes. Transfer to a bowl. In the same pan, heat cream and cream cheese. Cook until the cream cheese is competely melted and the cream has thickened a bit. This should take about 5 minutes. Season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Add the spinach back into the pan and toss to coat the spinach and heat through. This also makes a great filling for egg crepes. I sometimes saute a cup of sliced fresh mushrooms with the onion when I make it as a crepe filling and add a little shredded cheddar cheese.
