Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 pkg (10 oz.) frozen chopped spinach
2 Tbsp butter
1/2 c chopped green onion
4 clove garlic, minced
4 oz cream cheese
1/2 c milk
1 pinch nutmeg
1/4 c grated parmesan (optional)

Steps:

  • 1. Thaw spinach and squeeze all the water out. (I put it in a colander and use a potato masher to squeeze all the water out.) Set aside.
  • 2. In a large sauce pan, heat butter over medium heat. Add green onion and garlic, season with salt and pepper. Cook just until flavors are brought out.
  • 3. Add cream cheese and milk, cook, stirring constantly until cream cheese is melted.
  • 4. Stir in spinach and simmer until mixture is warmed through. Season with salt & pepper to taste. Garnish with a little grated parmesan cheese if desired.
