Equipment
Ingredients
- 8 oz Baby spinach
- ¾ cup Water
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
- salt (optional, to taste)
Instructions
- Sauté the spinach with water in a skillet over medium heat until it’s wilted. This usually takes just a few minutes.
- Turn off the heat and stir in the lemon juice (and season with salt if it’s for an older crowd).
- Transfer everything to a high-speed blender and puree until completely smooth.
Notes
Make ahead and freeze: This recipe doubles easily, just be sure you pan is big enough for the fresh spinach. It will wilt down quickly, but you may need to watch for leaves that try to jump out at the beginning.
