My husband is out tonight so I just went to the gym and made a green shake (spinach, almond milk, banana, pineapple core, and Shaklee Strawberry Cinch) for dinner. However my mouth is watering over the thought of this recipe - again I "lifted" it from the Penzy's magazine and changed a few things that I think make it better. If I was not cooking for only myself, I would probably make it right now. However, I can console myself with the fact that I had spinach in a healthier form - raw. You should totally make it though and tell me how yummy it is :) It's not the healthiest recipe I've posted but it does have merit with the spinach!
Ingredients:
- 1 9-oz bag of spinach
- 1/3-1/2 cup olive oil
- 4 oz proscuitto (original recipe calls for pancetta but I prefer the taste of proscuitto)
- 3-4 garlic cloves, pressed
- 3-4 Tablespoons white wine
- 1 teaspoon ground pepper
- 1 teaspoon oregano
- 2-4 Tablespoons crumbled feta cheese to taste
- 1 tomato, diced
Directions:
- Pour 1/3 cup of olive oil into a large skillet and place over medium heat. Add the proscuitto and garlic and brown slightly. (About 1-2 minutes)
- Reduce the heat to low and add the white wine (careful that the skillet is not too hot before adding).
- Stir in the pepper and oregano.
- Add the spinach in batches, adding more as it begins to wilt. You may need to add the rest of the olive oil during this time.
- Add the feta and diced tomatoes and stir. Serve warm.
Comments on Ingredients:
- Among the World's Healthiest vegetables, spinach comes out at the top of
our ranking list for nutrient richness. Rich in vitamins and minerals,
it is also concentrated in health-promoting phytonutrients such as
carotenoids (beta-carotene, lutein, and zeaxanthin) and flavonoids to
provide you with powerful antioxidant protection.
