Notes
How to defrost spinach - on a microwave safe plate, heat spinach for about 6 minutes then press down on the spinach with an identical plate, over the sink, to squeeze out the excess water. Fresh spinach may be used - approximately 1 lb is the equivalent of 10 oz frozen.Store leftovers covered in the fridge for up to 1 week.Slightly adapted from Real Housemoms
