Recipes With a Twist
Chopped Spinach, with Ranch
Spinach is a staple in my recipes. Besides cooking the traditional Indian spinach curry, I add it in lentils, soups, pasta, appetizers, dough, and wherever possible! Here is a simple recipe I use to prepare a spinach side that I can just toss in or use in other dishes.
1 pack frozen spinach
2 tbsp Ranch dressing (I used Hidden Valley’s lite version)
1 tsp butter
Thaw frozen spinach as per the directions. Heat butter in a frying pan and add the thawed, chopped (if not using chopped simanch, then chop it after thawing) spmianch. saute for couple of minutes. Add Ranch dressing, mix well and turn off the heat.
Cut calories: Instead of ranch dressing, add few cloves of minced garlic to the butter and add salt and pepper (any other seasoning) to taste
