Creamed Spinach a La Lawry's

I worked at Lawry's the Prime Rib on restaurant row in Los Angeles for many years. This is the recipe they gave out for their famous creamed spinach. Fabulous! Even better if you use heavy cream rather than the half and half and I always add a touch of sugar too!

• Ready In: 15 mins
• Serves: 4

Ingredients

• 1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach
• 2  slices bacon, finely chopped
• 1⁄2 cup  finely chopped green and  white onion
• 2  tablespoons flour
• 1  teaspoon  Lawry's Seasoned Salt
• 1⁄4 teaspoon Lawry's Seasoned Pepper
• 1  garlic clove, minced
• 1⁄4 cup half-and-half or 1⁄4 cup heavy cream

Directions

1. Cook spinach according to package directions, squeeze thoroughly to remove all water. Fry bacon and onions together until onions are tender, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat. Add flour, seasoned salt, seasoned pepper and garlic. Blend thoroughly. Slowly add half and half or cream, return to heat and stir until thickened. Add spinach and mix thoroughly. Adjust seasonings if needed. If too salty, add some sugar. If you like nutmeg, that makes a nice addition too.
