CREAMED SPINACH (LIKE BOSTON MARKET)



Creamed Spinach (Like Boston Market) image

This is by far the best creamed spinach recipe that I have ever tasted! My mother got married in early Nov and my brother (a chef) served Bar-B-Qued Filet Mignon, oven roasted red potatoes, this creamed spinach, salad and garlicy cheesy bread - Talk about heaven!! The creamed spinach stole the show and 1/2 the guests left with the recipe! He found the recipe on the internet, it is a copy cat recipe of Boston Market's creamed spinach. (I think it's better).

"ALMOST" BOSTON MARKET CREAMED SPINACH



This is quite similar to the creamed spinach at Boston Market, well so I'm told anyway! --- this is a great side dish, even people that hate spinach love this, it's great to serve along side a holiday turkey or a ham dinner, or at any meal --- I also like to saute about 2 teaspoons fresh minced garlic and a pinch of cayenne pepper in the butter for about 2 minutes before adding in the flour but that is optional, add in some grated Parmesan cheese too if desired, this complete recipe can be doubled :)

BOSTON MARKET CREAMED SPINACH

I received an email today featuring a few Boston Market copycat recipes. This one appears to be SLIGHTLY different from the others posted on Zaar so I thought I'd add it as well. I hope it's good! Please note that the number of servings is just a guesstimate. :-)
