Creamed Spinach

 This is by far the best way to eat spinach. All my kids love it! And mom and dad had it when they were in town and dad said he doesn't like spinach, but he ate all of his. I take it as a win.

INGREDIENTS

20 oz baby spinach (we tried fresh and frozen and fresh is hands down SO MUCH BETTER!)
2 Tbsp Butter
1/2 Medium yellow onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 C Milk
1/4 C heavy cream (I didn't have any this time and used 1/2 oz more of cream cheese and a little less than 1/4 C milk)
4 oz Cream Cheese
Kosher Salt
Freshly ground black pepper
Pinch cayenne pepper
1/4 C freshly grated parmesan

DIRECTIONS

In large pot of boiling salted water, cook spinach for 30 seconds, drain and place in bowl of ice water. Allow to cool until you can handle, then squeeze all the excess water out you can.

In a large skillet over medium heat, melt butter and add onion, cook for 5 minutes until soft. Add garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Add milk, heavy cream, and cream cheese to skillet. Simmer until cream cheese is melted. Season with salt, pepper, and a pinch of cayenne. 

Add spinach and parmesan and stir to combine. Enjoy!
