4-5
ingredients
- 1 lb fresh spinach
- 1⁄2 red onion, diced
- 2 garlic cloves, diced
- 1 medium tomatoes, diced
- 1⁄2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 teaspoons white vinegar
- 1 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1 1 ounce mozzarella cheese or 1 ounce cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons crumbled cooked bacon
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1⁄4 cup water
directions
- Over med-high heat, saute garlic and onions in Worcestershire sauce and olive oil until fragrant and onion is becoming transparent.
- Add bacon, tomato, and vinegar, saute until the tomato releases its juice and becomes soft (~2 min.) There should be some liquid released from the tomatoes in the pan, if not, add some water very sparingly and mix cheeses in until the chunks begin to dissolve.
- Bring mixture to a near boil, stirring well; add spinach leaves.
- Toss and cover for a minute, continue to toss and cover until the spinach has wilted and is covered in the thin cheese sauce.
- Allow spinach to cook with top removed ~3-5 minutes, as necessary, to reduce cheese sauce.
- Sauce may remain thinner than most cheese sauces, but will still impart loads of flavour to the spinach. Drizzle left-over sauce over potatoes or rice, or mop it up with bread.
