Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pound fresh spinach, about 2 large bunches, thoroughly cleaned
3 to 4 strips of bacon, uncooked, finely chopped
1 medium onion, finely chopped
1 clove garlic, finely chopped (about 1 teaspoon)
A pinch of nutmeg
Salt and pepper to taste
For the béchamel cream sauce:
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup whole milk

Steps:

  • Blanch and chop the spinach: Blanch the spinach in a pot of boiling water until the spinach is wilted, about 30 seconds to 2 minutes. Drain and rinse in cold water to stop the spinach from cooking further. Squeeze the spinach to remove all the moisture possible. Chop the spinach and set aside.
  • Sauté the bacon, onions, garlic: Heat a large skillet on medium high. Add the chopped bacon and sauté until the bacon begins to render some of its fat. Add the chopped onion and garlic. Sauté until onions are translucent.
  • Make the béchamel sauce: Melt the butter in a small saucepan on medium/low heat until it just starts to bubble. Add the flour and cook, stirring until smooth, about 2 minutes. Slowly add the milk, whisking continuously, cooking until thick.
  • Finish the dish and serve: Combine spinach, bacon and onion mixture, and béchamel sauce into one pan. Add nutmeg, salt, and pepper to taste. Bring to a simmer, remove from heat and serve.

CREAMED SPINACH AND BACON BAKE



Creamed Spinach and Bacon Bake image

This recipe is guaranteed to put a smile on any spinach-lover's face and will compliment any meal, since this is a creamed spinach recipe it is not a dish that bakes out totally firm. To remove the bitterness from the frozen spinach I like to microwave it in a little water for 10 minutes or until boiling, rinse until cold water then squeeze dry, if you don't mind the strong taste then you can omit this step. Prep time does not include cooking the bacon.
