Spinach Saute with Grape Tomatoes & Mushrooms

Here's another side dish to try! You know, I buy a lot of spinach! I'm talking the big Costco bags. So... coming up with some new ways to cook spinach is helpful! It was also the only thing that was even slightly creative in my meal tonight. Kids had homework galore... so my attentions were elsewhere! Hope you enjoy! We liked it... and so would Popeye!

Recipe:

16 oz (or so) spinach

8 oz mushrooms, sliced

1 C grape tomatoes, cut in half

2 tsp. olive oil

1 T lemon juice

1/2 tsp. fresh ground black pepper

1/2 tsp. celtic grey sea salt (optional)

Heat olive oil in a skillet. Saute mushrooms until tender. Add spinach, a little at a time. Cook until wilted enough to add remaining spinach. Stir in lemon juice, and black pepper. When it look just about done, add tomatoes for just the final couple minutes of cooking time. Serve and sprinkle with a pinch of grey salt if desired. Yummmmmmm!
