Directions

  1. Cut the spinach in half and cook in a large pot of boiling water until wilted; approximately 30 seconds. Rinse the spinach under cold water until cool enough to handle. Drain it in a colander and squeeze out excess water. Set aside.
  2. In a large skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat until bubbly, about 1-2 minutes. Sauté onion and garlic until fragrant; approximately 2 minutes.
  3. Add flour and stir to combine. Stir in heavy cream and Parmesan. Stir constantly and turn the heat down to medium. Simmer until smooth and thickened; approximately 4-5 minutes—season with salt and pepper.
  4. Stir in spinach and combine. Cook for 1-2 minutes until fully combined and heated through.
  5. Serve warm and top with parmesan, if desired.
