Enjoy a lighter take on a classic with this Healthy Creamed Spinach, featuring sautéed spinach with a rich blend of cheeses and Greek yogurt. This creamy side dish is both delicious and nutritious, perfect for complementing any mea!!
The recipe:
Add olive oil, onion and garlic to a sauté pan and cook for 2-3 minutes.
Then add in spinach and cover for a minute or two until the spinach goes down. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Then add half & half and mix well.
Then add shredded mozzarella and parmesan cheese, butter, greek yogurt and mix well.
It will be a little liquidy, so to finalize the dish, I added 1/2 tbsp of flour just to thicken it up and make it the perfect consistency!
I was planning to eat this with a fork but it actually tastes 10 times better with chips as a dip! But could absolutely be a great side dish for any meal.
