I love cooking with spinach- it is so easy to use and packed full of many health benefits.
Spinach is a great source of vitamin C, Iron and has antioxidants that can help prevent cancer.

Here are two easy meals I made- both are suitable for breakfast, lunch or dinner.
The first one is actually a leftover dish- I had a few crepes left over from a breakfast meal we made so I wilted some spinach with salt and a pinch of nutmeg and layered it:
I added a layer of Canadian Back Bacon- just gave it a quick turn on a non-stick frying pan
Made a béchamel sauce (just google a recipe)
And came up with this deliciousness:
I love making egg Frittata-
Here I used sauteed mushrooms, wilted spinach and Brie
Add whisked eggs, cream and salt
pour over top of other ingredients and cook on low heat with a lid on
What is your favorite thing to make using spinach?

Those both look AMAZING! I usually will cook up spinach with a little bacon and shallots and then add just a little bit of sour cream to make a super tasty side dish.
They both look utterly delicious to this spinach fan. I sometimes make cheesey yorkshire puddings with finely shredded spinach mixed through - they are tasty and exotically green.
These both look so good! I'm a sucker for anything with brie.
That fritata looks especially yum. I throw TONS of spinach into smoothies. we also like it in salad. I think our family prefers it raw to cooked for the most part.
Yum! That looks really good...
My favorite thing to do with spinach is shabu shabu. Of course, I only dip the spinach in for a couple of seconds.
We love it in salads and also sauteed with shallots and bit of bacon.
look at that deliciousness! you took a few simple ingredients and turned it into a work or ART! so beautiful:)
Brie and spinach?! You have my heart! And my stomach! These look delicious...and surprisingly so easy! I love a good spinach salad and love putting spinach in my omelettes.
I can see. The poor spinach are just the excuse for a feast!
That looks so delicious! Will try to be a little more "exotic" with my spinach next time too;)
Those dishes sound so good!
These both look so delicious-and there's nothing I love more than meals to do double duty as breakfast or dinner!
I heart spinach. I love just blending raw spinach with a little olive oil and some cheese (cream cheese or creamy goat cheese) and use as a topping/sauce on warm pasta.
Thanks for visiting my blog. I'm glad I came over here, though I'm jealous of your culinary skill and inventiveness and I feel especially sorry for my family since none of that is coming out of my pans!
I too like making fritatas.. because the combinations are endless and you get a win every time!
you're making me so hungry! i love spinach in any form. it's actually a "secret" ingredient in the smoothies i make for my lil guy since he's not a big fan of "leaves".
ooh that looks yummy. i only like raw spinach and i'll put it either in a sandwich or mix it into a salad.
