Sauteed Spinach

Delicious piled over, under, or next to a salmon filet, chicken breast, or steak.

1 overflowing Tbsp. olive oil or butter (according to your taste)

2 Tbsp. chopped green onion

1 small clove garlic, minced or pressed

(or substitute 2-3 T. ramps for both green onion and garlic)

4 c. tightly packed fresh spinach

Salt and pepper

Saute the onion and garlic in olive oil or butter for about 2-3 minutes, until soft and aromatic. Add the spinach and stir gently, cooking just until wilted. Season with salt and pepper.

Optional additions:

A splash of lemon juice adds just a bit of brightness and zing.

A pinch of red pepper flakes are great if you like a little heat.

Sprinkle with 2-3 Tbsp. each of crumbled feta and toasted pine nuts.
