    In a non stick pan with a spritz of cooking spray throw 3-4 cups of fresh baby spinach, let it cook with a lid on for 3 minutes. Stir once or so halfway through the cooking time. Hit is with a dose of pepper as you plate it and eat it with an egg white omelet. Yum!

    THERE'S THIS CRAZY FEATURE HERE THAT ALLOWS YOU TO ACCESS THE ARCHIVES OF PAST POSTS. IT'S CALLED THE "SEARCH" FEATURE. CLICK ON THE LINK JUST ABOVE THIS THREAD. IT'S FANTASTIC!

    Since we're stating the obvious, there's an even crazier feature called the shift key so that you're not e-yelling by typing in all caps in every post.


    To the OP, spinach is great in

    omelettes
    dips

    I dice it in stews like chili
    I also cook spinach and tomatoes together in a pan with italian seasoning & add a little parmasean

    I absolutely LOVE spinach and eat it on a regular basis. One of my favorite recipes is a Spinach-Rice Souffle. Here you go:
    About 2 cups cooked rice (I use a mix of Basmati, short and long grain brown rice, and wild rice)
    3/4 to 1 cup cheese (I use low-fat mozzarella, but a mix of cheddar and mozzarella is also good)
    2 eggs, beaten
    2-3 Tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
    About a pound of fresh spinach (I use two bags of the organic baby spinach. This is also good with kale)
    2-3 Tablespoons wheat germ
    1-2 Tablespoons butter
    Salt, pepper and herbs of choice

    Combine rice and cheese in a large bowl. In another bowl combine eggs, parsley, salt, pepper and herbs. Add the two mixtures to the spinach, in a large bowl, and mix well. Pore into a buttered souffle or casserole dish. Mix wheat germ and butter and spread it on top. Bake at 350-degrees for 35 minutes. Enjoy!!

    I use all organic ingredients. This is excellent heated up. I usually make it and eat it over a 4-5 day period.
