Spinach W.Pine Nuts & Garlic - Atkins Recipe




Ingredients:

1/4 cup pine nuts (pignoli)
3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
2 clove garlic, chop fine
2 bag (10 oz) spinach leaves, washed fresh
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
lemon wedges

Instructions:

Antioxidant-rich spinach picks up a deep nutty flavor from the pignoli and
toasted garlic.


1. Gently toast nuts in a dry sauté pan until they start to brown. Set
aside. In a very large pan, heat olive oil and garlic over medium heat
until garlic sizzles and starts to turn golden (do not allow garlic to
brown).

2. Add pine nuts and one third of the spinach; sauté until spinach wilts.
Add remaining spinach in batches, seasoning with salt and pepper as it
cooks. Serve with lemon wedges.
