Spinach Melt
Ingredients
1 lb. fresh spinach, steamed & rinsed or, 1 (10 oz.) pkg. frozen chopped spinach, thawed & squeezed dry
2 Tbsp. olive oil
1 med. onion, thinly sliced
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. freshly ground white pepper (optional)
1/8 tsp. ground nutmeg (optional)
4 oz. Swiss cheese, shredded or sliced
Cooking Instructions
If using fresh spinach, place in a 3-quart casserole without drying it. Cover lightly with a lid or vented plastic wrap and microwave on HIGH for 2 minutes. Drain immediately. Cool. Squeeze dry and coarsely chop. In a 2-quart glass baking dish combine the olive oil and onion. Microwave on HIGH 4 to 6 minutes, or until the onion is just tender, stirring once or twice. Add the spinach, salt, pepper and nutmeg. Stir thoroughly to coat with oil and to break up the mixture a bit. Microwave on HIGH 2 to 4 minutes, or until spinach is tender and mixture is heated through. Top with cheese and microwave just until cheese melts.
