BRAISED SPINACH WITH GARLIC, ONION, AND PINE NUTS
My favorite supermarket had some beautiful fresh spinach on sale a few weeks ago, and I just had to load up on it, cheap AND beautiful... who could ask for more! This is one of the ways I chose to use it.

Steps:
- Heat a large pot or Dutch oven (it has to be large to hold spinach before wilting) over medium-high heat.
- Heat 1-2 Tbsp olive oil, and saute onion until translucent.
- Add garlic, and continue cooking until onion just begins to brown around the edges, but garlic is not browning.
- Add spinach, with just the water clinging to the leaves, adding by handfuls as the spinach wilts and makes room for more, until all of the spinach is incorporated.
- If desired, drain the rendered juices from the pan before continuing.
- Season with nutmeg, lemon zest and juice, salt, and pepper, to taste, continuing to toss spinach until it is just wilted, but still bright green.
- Stir in toasted pine nuts, and drizzle with more lemon juice and olive oil if desired.
