Ingredients

1/2 cup pine nuts
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 small onion, minced
3 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 cup milk
4 ounces cream cheese, cubed
2 (10 ounce) packages frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained
1/3 cup asiago cheese, grated

Steps:

In a small sauté pan heat 1 tbsp of olive oil on MEDIUM, add pine nuts (be careful they burn quickly! Make sure you are constantly watching and stirring them). Toast lightly (about 1 minute) remove from heat and add 1 tbsp honey. Transfer to a small bowl and let pine nuts cool.
Add 1 tbsp of olive oil to the small sauté pan. Add onions and garlic. Fry until translucent (do not brown). Sit onions/garlic to the side to cool.
On MEDIUM heat, add 1/4 cup butter to a large saucepan. Once butter has melted add the flour, salt, pepper and nutmeg. Cook for about 1 minute.
Slowly add milk to butter/flour mixture, stirring constantly until you have a thick sauce. Add the cubed cream cheese and stir until melted.
Add the onion/garlic mixture to the cream sauce.
Add the 2 packages of well drained frozen chopped spinach to the cream sauce. Stir to combine and cook for approx 3-4 minutes on MEDIUM.
Once spinach mixture is heated completely through, stir in Asiago cheese and remove from heat.
Transfer creamed spinach to a serving dish.
Spoon honey glazed pine nuts over the creamed spinach and serve immediately.
