SAUTEED SPINACH WITH MUSHROOMS



Sauteed Spinach With Mushrooms image

Not many ingredients but fresh is the key! Your kids shouldn't even mind eating spinach or mushrooms after tasting this. I have been making this dish for years and now don't really even need to measure ingredients. I just make to taste and we usually have this as a side dish for red meat. Pick your favorite mushroom. I like to use cremini. I have used portobello before but the gills make this dish an ugly brown color, so if you use portobello, remove the gills. The original recipe calls for boiling the spinach for one minute before sauteing but I skip that step now and just throw the bag of baby spinach in the saute pan and it wilts in the pan. It's your choice. Also, be gentle with the salt and pepper because too much ruins the dish. It's best to use a little then add more if needed after tasting, but most times you won't want to ruin the flavor.

Time 20m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 (10 ounce) package fresh Baby Spinach
3 tablespoons butter, divided
1/2 lb mushroom, sliced
salt and pepper, to taste
2 -4 fresh garlic cloves, chopped

Steps:

  • Bring water in a large pot to a boil (enough to cover spinach). Add the spinach and cook for 1 minute or less. * (This step is for spinach not cleaned and in a bag so I usually skip this step now and just add the raw spinach after cooking the mushrooms but cook for a couple of minutes or until the spinach leaves have wilted.).
  • * Drain in colander and let cool. Squeeze spinach to extract moisture and chop.
  • Melt all but 1 tablespoons of butter in the pan on medium low heat, add the the sliced mushrooms and cook, stirring often.
  • Add salt and pepper when mushrooms are almost cooked and add remaining butter and spinach. Cook thru stirring about 30 seconds.
  • Sprinkle with chopped garlic, stir and cook for a few more minutes. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Prep Your Ingredients: Before you start cooking, make sure to wash and chop your spinach, mushrooms, and onion. This will save you time and ensure that your dish cooks evenly.
  • Use Fresh Ingredients: Fresh spinach and mushrooms will give your florentine the best flavor. If you can't find fresh spinach, you can use frozen spinach that has been thawed and squeezed dry.
  • Don't Overcook the Spinach: Spinach cooks very quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Overcooked spinach will become slimy and lose its flavor.
  • Use a Good Quality Cheese: The cheese is one of the key ingredients in florentine, so it's important to use a good quality cheese that melts well. Parmesan cheese, Gruyère cheese, and mozzarella cheese are all good choices.
  • Serve Immediately: Florentine is best served immediately after it's made. This will ensure that the cheese is melted and gooey and the spinach is still vibrant and green.

Conclusion:

Spinach and mushroom florentine is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that's perfect for a weeknight meal. It's also a great way to get your daily dose of vegetables. With its creamy sauce, tender spinach, and flavorful mushrooms, florentine is sure to be a hit with your family and friends. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give spinach and mushroom florentine a try.
