Creamed Spinach (2)

Estimated Prep Time: 10 minutes
Estimated Cooking Time: 10 minutes

Instead of spinach, you can use another quick-cooking green such as beet leaves, etc.

Optional: add a tbsp or 2 of grated parmesan to the cream.

Ingredients

1 1/2 pound Spinach

6 tablespoons Heavy Cream

Directions

Wash and prepare the spinach (remove tough stems, etc). Leave the water on the leaves (don't shake them off or drain them).

Put them in a microwave safe bowl, sprinkle a bit more water on them, cover and zap on high for 2 minutes or until wilted.

Drain well, pressing any excess moisture out.

While the spinach is draining, put the cream in the microwave safe bowl, and zap it on high for a minute or so until it looks like it's about to boil. Stir in a pinch of salt, and a few dashes of either black pepper or ground nutmeg. Return the spinach to the bowl, stir it in, and zap in the microwave for another minute to warm.

Serve hot.
