Creamed Spinach

I could eat this every day, it is one of my favorites. If I don't have time to cook I just take a box of frozen spinach from the freezer and in 10 minutes I have a great lunch or dinner. I always have frozen spinach, eggs and milk at home. You can use cream or milk for this recipe, I usually make it with milk.

Heat oil in a small saucepan over low heat; add the crushed garlic and sauté garlic in butter for about 1 minute. Do not let garlic burn or it will be bitter.

Add salt and pepper and heat until mixture bubbles, stirring constantly.
Gradually add the milk stirring constantly until the mixture is smooth and thick.

  1. This is a nice dish, we like creamed spinach. My spouse (theEducation Tipster) used to get that Stouffers spinach souffle, but homemade is best.
