Best 7 Spinach Side Dish Recipes

SPINACH SOUFFLE SIDE DISH

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine all ingredients. Transfer to a greased 1-1/2-qt. baking dish. Bake at 350° until edges are lightly browned, 35-40 minutes.

SARAH'S SPINACH SIDE DISH

Steps:

• Melt whipped butter in a small saucepan over medium heat; stir flour, garlic salt, and kosher salt into the melted butter until smooth.
• Whisk in low-fat milk, bring to a simmer, and reduce heat to low. Simmer sauce until thickened, whisking constantly, about 1 minute.
• Stir spinach into the sauce and heat until warmed through, 1 to 2 more minutes.

LOW-CARB CAULIFLOWER-SPINACH SIDE DISH

Steps:

• Run cauliflower through a food processor to get 2 cups of cauliflower grounds a bit larger than the consistency of grits.
• Combine cauliflower, spinach, butter, and salt in a large pot over low heat. Cover and cook until cauliflower is soft and spinach has wilted, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in cheese wedges until the cauliflower and spinach are coated and no cheese clumps remain.

MUSHROOM AND SPINACH SIDE DISH

Steps:

• If you're using porcini mushrooms, put them in a dish with enough hot water to barely cover and let them soak for about 20 minutes.
• Wash and slice the fresh mushrooms and remove any tough stems.
• In a large pan with a cover, heat the oil and sauté the mushrooms, including the soaked porcini and the soaking liquid.
• Stir well, cover and cook gently for 5 minutes.
• Stir in the garlic and herb blend, cover and cook for another 5 minutes, until the mushrooms are tender and most of the liquid has been absorbed.
• Add the baby spinach leaves to the mushroom mix. Stir to wilt them briefly, and the dish is ready to serve, or to store in the fridge for later use. You may want to add salt and pepper to taste but most people find it's not necessary.

SIMPLE SPINACH SIDE DISH

Steps:

• Thaw and drain the spinach.
• Mix spinach, onion and sour cream.
• Place in greased casserole dish.
• Cover (layer!) with grated cheese, fresh bread crumbs, and parm.
• Bake at 350 for 30 minutes.

MILLET WITH BABY SPINACH- SIDE DISH OR WARM SALAD

Steps:

• Place the millet, dried apricots, water and stock in a large saucepan. Bring to the boil, reduce heat to a slow simmer. SImmer 15 to 20 minutes or until the liquid has been absorbed and the millet is tender.
• Meanwhile, using a dry pan, toast the flaked almonds until lightly golden and fragrant. Set aside.
• Add the spinach and lemon juice to the millet and season with salt and freshly ground pepper (depending on the stock used, you may not need to add any salt). Cover the pan and cook on a very low heat for a few minutes to wilt the spinach.
• Serve scattered with the flaked almonds over the top as garnish.

EASY SPINACH AND MUSHROOM TART (SIDE DISH)

Steps:

• Heat oven to 325 deg F/160 deg Celsius.
• Grease a tart plate with butter.
• Tear up or cut up the spinach roughly, and put into a mixing bowl.
• Add the chopped mushrooms and onion to the spinach.
• Whisk the eggs in another bowl, and add the yoghurt, seasoning salt, Tabasco and garlic. Whisk well. Add to the spinach mixture.
• Mix through well with a spatula, wooden spoon, or your hands!
• Pat the whole lot into the greased tart plate. Use your hands to flatten it a little -- it should fit well into an ordinary-size tart pan or plate.
• Drizzle over the olive oil, and then sprinkle with the dried breadcrumbs. Bake for 45 minutes, or until slightly puffed up and set.
• * If you want, change the seasonings, or add more salt than suggested, as seasoning salt alone might not be enough. Nutmeg can also be added to the wet mixture.
