Asian Spinach

Since many gardens will be producing spinach soon I thought I'd post this recipe I found several years ago. It is incredibly quick and easy to put together. I think it was on the back of a bag of baby spinach.

Asian Spinach
(printable recipe)



Ingredients:
  • 1 bag prewashed spinach (about 4 cups)
  • 2 Tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 Tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 finely chopped scallion
  • sesame seeds (optional)
Directions:
  1. Place prewashed spinach in microwaveable dish. Microwave on high 2-3 minutes. Let cool 1 minute.
  2. Combine soy sauce, sesame oil scallion, sesame seeds if preferred.
  3. Add sauce to spinach and serve.
Notes:
If you like Asian style flavors or soy sauce you'll like this recipe. My children (ages 5 & 7) actually like spinach when served this way!
This does not keep as leftovers very well, so only make as much as your family will eat.
