Spinach melt
4 Servings
Ingredients
| Quantity | Ingredient | |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | pounds | Fresh spinach; steamed & rinsed or, |
| 2 | tablespoons | Olive oil |
| 1 | medium | Onion; thinly sliced |
| ½ | teaspoon | Salt |
| ¼ | teaspoon | Freshly ground white pepper; (optional) |
| ⅛ | teaspoon | Ground nutmeg; (optional) |
| 4 | ounces | Swiss cheese; shredded or sliced |
Directions
If using fresh spinach, place in a 3-quart casserole without drying it.
Cover lightly with a lid or vented plastic wrap and microwave on HIGH for 2 minutes. Drain immediately. Cool. Squeeze dry and coarsely chop. In a 2-quart glass baking dish combine the olive oil and onion. Microwave on HIGH 4 to 6 minutes, or until the onion is just tender, stirring once or twice. Add the spinach, salt, pepper and nutmeg. Stir thoroughly to coat with oil and to break up the mixture a bit.
Microwave on HIGH 2 to 4 minutes, or until spinach is tender and mixture is heated through. Top with cheese and microwave just until cheese melts.
