Betty's Parmesan Creamed Spinach

heavy cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk + cornstarch

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

Place ½ cup butter and 2 cups whipping cream in a very large saucepan or Dutch oven.

Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.

Reduce heat to medium-low and cook, stirring often, until somewhat thickened, about 15 minutes.

Stir in 2/3 cup shaved Parmesan cheese, ½ teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg, and ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper.

Add 18 ounces fresh spinach and cook over low heat, stirring often, for 3 minutes or until spinach has wilted.

Ladle into a nice bowl or soup tureen.

Place ½ cup additional shaved Parmesan cheese in the center of the hot Creamed Spinach and sprinkle ½ cup toasted pine nuts on top.

Serve immediately.
