Quick & Easy Cajun Creamed Spinach image

This recipe was thrown together to try to mimic a hybrid between spinach dip & spinach Madeleine, but slightly less rich so it would be a suitable side vegetable without being overpowering. I think the cheeses would be interchangeable with almost any, I used what I had on hand. Monterrey Jack would probably be a great substitute for the italian blend cheeses

Number Of Ingredients 11

10 ounces Baby Spinach
10 ounces frozen spinach, chopped
2 ounces cream cheese
1/4 cup light sour cream
2 tablespoons feta, crumbles

Steps:

  • Saute' chopped onion & minced garlic in butter until soft.

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. Next time I'll use less cayenne pepper.
