Time 17m

Yield 6 1/3 cup servings, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 (9 ounce) bags Baby Spinach
1 1/4 cups reduced-fat milk, 2%
2 tablespoons flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 pinch nutmeg

Steps:

  • Spray a nonstick skillet with nonstick spray and set over medium-high heat. Add 1 bag of the spinach and cook until wilted. Drain. Repeat with the remaining 2 bags; squeeze dry.
  • While the spinach cooks, whisk the milk, flour, salt and nutmeg in a medium saucepan until blended; bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat and cook, stirring, until thickened, 4-5 minutes. Add the spinach and cook, stirring, until hot, about 1 minute.
  • If making ahead, let cool; freeze in an airtight container up to 1 month. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight. Cook with 2 tablespoons low-fat milk until hot.
