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.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a medium saute pan or skillet (not nonstick) over medium-low heat. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 2 minutes (do not let the garlic brown). Push the garlic off to the side of the pan and add the mushrooms. Increase the heat to medium high and season the mushrooms with salt and pepper to taste. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are cooked through and begin to become golden in spots, 10 to 12 minutes.
- Add the spinach, sprinkle with an additional pinch of salt and turn with tongs until wilted. (If you can't fit all the spinach in the pan, cover it for a few minutes, then uncover, stir and add the rest.) Transfer to a serving platter, drizzle with the vinegar and serve warm.
