Create Quick Tip: Creamed Spinach

heavy cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk + cornstarch

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

Parmesan cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: grated cheddar

Nutritional yeast is dairy-free and adds umami flavor.

Use a fork to mash a little softened butter and flour together to thicken the sauce.

Melt some more butter in a Dutch oven over medium heat.

Add minced shallot and garlic, and cook until the shallot is translucent.

Add the spinach and salt, and cook until wilted.

Stir in the cream and bring to a simmer.

Add the butter-flour mixture and cook until the cream thickens and clings to the spinach.

Remove the pot from the heat and stir in Parmesan, pepper, and nutmeg.
