Ricotta Creamed Spinach image

I love creamed spinach, and I have made it many different ways, milk, cream, cream cheese, yogurt, etc. Well I had a little leftover ricotta one night and thought why not. Now, you can easily alter the amounts in this dish. Some people may want theirs more creamy, whereas I like a little less creamy, more garlic and onion or less, but this is based on my taste.

Time 30m

Yield 8 side servings, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 (7 ounce) bags Baby Spinach
1/2 cup ricotta cheese
2 tablespoons heavy cream
2 tablespoons parmesan cheese
1 small onion (cut in half and thin sliced)
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 pinch nutmeg
salt
garlic

Steps:

  • Spinach -- In a large saute pan, heat to medium heat and add the olive oil. Saute the shallot and garlic until tender, just a couple of minutes. Then add in the spinach. I know if looks like a lot, but it reduces very quickly. Just cook until all the spinach is wilted.
  • Sauce -- As the spinach cooks, add the ricotta, cream, parmesan, nutmeg to a blender or small food processor and blend until creamy.
  • Finish -- Just finish the dish by adding in the ricotta, salt and pepper and cook on medium heat until the cheese is heated through.
  • Serve -- Plate up and enjoy. A little bit lighter version, but a great flavor with the onion and garlic.

This dish was a bit too salty for my taste. I think I would use less Parmesan cheese next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my dish turned out really watery. I think I might have added too much ricotta.

The ricotta creamed spinach was a bit too oily for my liking. I think I would use less olive oil next time.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I think I would add more garlic and red pepper flakes next time.
