Sauteed Spinach and Portabella Mushrooms

"This recipe is delicious and loaded with nutritional value. This goes well with a roast, fish, pasta and can be eaten alone as a light meal with a nice crusty bread to soak up the juices. I made this up myself for a mushroom loving friend. The best spinach to use is the flat spinach, stems removed. Slice the portabellas into medium pieces, including the stems, which should be sliced separately. I use a lot of garlic, but that can be adjusted to taste. This recipe needs to be made quickly, so make sure all the ingredients are prepped in advance. Do not substitute red wine for the whte wine. If you don't have white wine, just make this without it."

  1. This was a bit bland for me so I fried up a thinnly sliced leek which I had in the fridge, added it to the mushrooms. Put the spinach or kale in the pan after shroom were done and turned off the heat. Stirred it around and that was enough to wilt down the greens to perfection.
     
  2. Wonderful recipe! I omitted parsley and only used a 10 oz bag of spinach (curly leaf, which worked fine), but kept everything else the same. I drained off the liquid before serving. This is very, very good and I will make it again and again. The only suggestion I have is that you might want to use more than one pan at a time. I only used 10 oz of spinach and by the time it was all cooked, some of it seemed to be slightly overdone.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

Hi everyone. I recently moved to quiet PA Dutch country, but my roots are in Tokyo, Japan, where I was born and NYC, where I was also raised. Being multi ethnic I grew up eating both eastern and western cuisine. I was raised by my Korean step- mother, an absolutely outstanding cook. Thanks to her I grew up around food preparation, which instilled the desire to cook good food. I love all types of food, and there is nothing like a great home cooked meal. I have also traveled extensively and have incorporated foods from countries where I have visited and lived into my diet. I love this website. If I have something I need to use up, all I have to do now is do a search and voila! I have found plenty of recipes to choose from---I even found recipes for sour milk! On a more personal level, I am a single woman with 3 cats and a dog. I work in a medical billing office and am currently studying to be a hospital coder. I would love to eventually work from home and possibly have a boarding house for international students where I can serve dinner from recipes I have found here!
