Posted By Administrator On 27th August 2005 @ 08:42 In Side Dishes, Phase 1 | No Comments

1-1/2 to 2 pounds fresh spinach, ends trimmed and discarded
1 teaspoon olive oil
2 tablespoons pine nuts
2-4 cloves garlic, chopped
Salt and pepper

Wash the spinach well and shake out the water. Heat a large saucepan over high heat and add the spinach. Cook for about 5-7 minutes or until tender, tossing frequently. Transfer the spinach to a colander and set aside.

Heat the saucepan over medium flame and add the olive oil. When the oil is hot, add the pine nuts and chopped garlic and cook until both are golden, about 2 minutes. Return the spinach to the saucepan, toss to combine and cook until heated through, about 2 minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste.

Serves 4
