Gulliver's Creamed Spinach

Submitted by SteelerSue

"Another from my stash of yellowed newspaper clippings. This is an absolutely amazing creamed spinach, thick and full of flavor. Just make sure you really squeeze as much moisture from the spinach as possible. We have doubled and tripled this just fine. I hope you enjoy this as much as we do."
