This dish was a bit too oily for my taste. I think I'll use less olive oil next time.

I'm not a fan of spinach, but I tried this recipe anyway and was pleasantly surprised. The pine nuts and raisins added a nice sweetness that balanced out the bitterness of the spinach.

This was a great way to use up some leftover spinach. I added a bit of lemon juice and zest for a brighter flavor.

I'm not a big fan of raisins, so I omitted them from the recipe. The dish was still very good, and the pine nuts added a nice crunch.

This dish was a bit too bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more garlic and chili flakes next time.
