Coconut Creamed Spinach
Contrary to popular belief, there is a way to make rich creamed spinach without cream. "How?" you ask? Use coconut milk instead. In this recipe, we sauté the spinach with red onion, garlic, ginger and a few spices, like cayenne pepper, to bring the heat. Then we simmer the spinach in coconut milk until the mixture gets nice and thick. Try serving this healthier side dish with roast chicken, pork tenderloin or salmon.
