Total Time: 15 mins Preparation Time: 5 mins Cook Time: 10 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 4
• 1 lb fresh spinach
• 1/2 red onion, diced
• 2 garlic cloves, diced
• 1 medium tomato, diced
• 1/2 teaspoon worcestershire sauce
• 2 teaspoons vinegar
• 1 cup crumbled feta cheese
• 1 ounce diced pecorino cheese or 1 ounce parmesan cheese or 1 ounce mozzarella cheese or 1 ounce cheddar cheese
• 2 tablespoons crumbled cooked bacon
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1/4 cup water

Recipe

• 1 over med-high heat, saute garlic and onions in worcestershire sauce and olive oil until fragrant and onion is becoming transparent.
• 2 add bacon, tomato, and vinegar, saute until the tomato releases its juice and becomes soft (~2 min.) there should be some liquid released from the tomatoes in the pan, if not, add some water very sparingly and mix cheeses in until the chunks begin to dissolve.
• 3 bring mixture to a near boil, stirring well; add spinach leaves.
• 4 toss and cover for a minute, continue to toss and cover until the spinach has wilted and is covered in the thin cheese sauce.
• 5 allow spinach to cook with top removed ~3-5 minutes, as necessary, to reduce cheese sauce.
• 6 sauce may remain thinner than most cheese sauces, but will still impart loads of flavour to the spinach. drizzle left-over sauce over potatoes or rice, or mop it up with bread.
