Fava Bean Puree with Spinach ToppingThis is a 'put your hand on your tummy and rub to show it's yummy' recipe. ;-)

Ingredients:

Directions:

Heat a large pot over high heat until hot. Add the olive oil. Add the garlic and cook for a few seconds until it is golden. Add half of the greens and toss well in the garlic oil with tongs.

Add the remaining greens and toss until the greens wilt evenly. When wilted, season with salt and pepper to taste. Continue cooking over high heat, tossing often, until the excess liquid evaporates.

Transfer greens to a bowl and allow to them cool to room temperature and season to taste with vinegar. Serve at room temperature. The greens are also tasty served cold and will keep well in the refrigerator for a couple of days.

If a recipe calls for frozen spinach with the water squeezed out, I have a great and easy way to do this. No more do you need to waste valuable paper towels and make a mess. I use my potato ricer.

I drain them only leaving a small amount of juice and mix them in with beans and cheese then I microwave it til warm and spread it over club crackers and serve with fruit. Also, you can mix them in eggs and leftover meat and stuffing or breadcrumbs to make an omelet or quiche.

I just heat and eat. My aunt chops boiled eggs up in hers, but I don't.

I love canned spinach heated, drained and splashed with vinegar or drizzled with a teaspoon or so of minced garlic that was sautéed in a tablespoon of olive oil for a minute. You can use it in oh so many recipes but here are some canned spinach recipes that will give you lots of ideas: popeyespinach.com/recipes.php

If you keep in mind that 1 cup cooked and drained is the same as 1 pound fresh you can adjust almost any recipe.

How about a simple spinach pie recipe? My father was always making these as he loved them and they are simple and good. Sorry I do not know what a spinach square is.

For the pies you just take storebought refrigerator biscuits (or use dough) put in either fresh or squeezed dry frozen spinach in one of the biscuits you took apart and flattened out and fold over and seal and bake. These can be baked in a regular or even a toaster oven until the biscuit is brown, Add a little olive oil INSIDE f you are using just spinach or if you like anchovies you can add one to each pie but skip the oil, I'm sure you can just about add anything you personally like.
Good luck and have a wonderful weekend

I found that frozen shinach is very stringy. The veins and stems are left in during cooking process. Much better if you use fresh spinach and remove the stems and large veins before cooking it. Takes more time but worth it in the end.
