Here's another delicious, health-conscious recipe from Kristin Cavallari's True Comfort. There are a variety of ways to make creamed spinach, so add whatever suits your fancy!
Ingredients:
3 tbsp. virgin coconut oil
2 shallots, diced
3 cloves garlic, chopped
Pinch of red pepper flakes
1/ cup of chicken stock
1 1/2 cup of coconut cream
2 tsp. oat flour (regular flour works fine)
1 (8 oz.) bag of fresh baby spinach, roughly chopped
Pinch of ground nutmeg
1 tsp. chopped fresh thyme
1 tbsp. chopped fresh basil
Pink Himalayan salt
Freshly ground black pepper
FIRST: In a large pan, warm the coconut oil over medium heat. Add the shallots, garlic, and red pepper flakes. Saute until fragrant, roughly 5 minutes.
THEN: Add the chicken stock and coconut cream, and bring to a simmer. Gradually whisk in flour (oat or regular, depending on preference). Let the mixture cook until it thickens, roughly 8-10 minutes.
FINALLY: Add the spinach, nutmeg, thyme, and basil to the coconut mixture and mix well. Cook for an additional 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to combine fully. If too thick, add more stock. Serve hot.
