Description

This recipe, as are most I have, was given to me by my mother, and is really simple and very tasty as a creamy citrus addition to fish or chicken.

Ingredients

1/8 cup water
1 bunch fresh spinach, rinsed and stemmed
1/3 cup cream cheese, softened
1 pinch salt
4 teaspoons lemon juice

Directions

1 Bring the water to a boil in a skillet over medium heat. Add spinach all at once, and reduce heat slightly. Cover, and let cook for about 3 minutes, or until spinach is not quite tender.
2 Stir in the cream cheese and lemon juice, and season with salt. Cook, stirring, until the cream cheese is melted and well blended. Serve immediately.
