Sauteed Spinach and Garlic

parmesan cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: grated pecorino

Nutritional yeast adds a cheesy flavor with fewer calories.

Heat olive oil in a medium sauté pan over medium heat.

Add 2 tablespoons of minced garlic to the pan and sauté for about 30 seconds to infuse the oil with garlic flavor.

Add 10 ounces of cleaned baby spinach to the pan, packing it in from the bag.

Use a couple of spoons to toss the spinach in the pan.

Continue tossing the spinach until it begins to wilt, adding more olive oil if the pan seems too dry.

Cook the spinach for an additional minute until it is fully wilted and releasing water.

Drain any excess water from the pan before serving.

Taste the spinach to check for flavor, noting the garlic.
