Creamed Spinach with Pine Nuts




Source of Recipe


from: The Graduate Student Cookbook


Recipe Introduction


now you can be as strong as Popeye
and get to eat heavy cream with your vegetables!


List of Ingredients




20 oz fresh or frozen spinach
If the spinach is fresh, pick off the larger stems and wash out the sand and dirt. In a pot sufficiently huge to hold all that spinach, bring 2 c water to a rapid boil. Add spinach. Simmer, covered, for about 20 minutes. Drain; blend or chop.

That was the long part. Indeed, if you're using frozen spinach this is really quick. Just thaw it by setting the box in hot water for a few minutes.
