How to Make Spinach With Blue Cheese And Walnuts
- Wash the spinach thoroughly and remove any tough stems.
- Place the spinach in a large saucepan. Add just enough water to barely cover the bottom of the pan (about 1 tablespoon). Cook over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until the spinach wilts, about 5-7 minutes.
- Transfer the wilted spinach to a colander and let it drain well. Alternatively, use a clean kitchen towel to squeeze out excess water.
- Melt the butter in the same saucepan over medium heat. Add the drained spinach and nutmeg. Toss gently to coat.
- Stir in the chopped walnuts and crumbled blue cheese. Cook for 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese is slightly softened and melted but still holds its shape (don't overcook!).
- Serve immediately. Garnish with extra walnuts or a sprinkle of nutmeg, if desired.
