Print this Recipe

Impress your guests when you serve this creamy side. Swiss chard, with tender leaves and firm crisp stalks, can also be used in place of spinach. This succulent side goes perfect with slices of steak.


   1 pound fresh spinach * or other fresh greens
   1 (4-ounce) can button mushrooms, drained
   1 teaspoon instant minced onions
   1 small clove garlic, crushed
   1/2 teaspoon salt
   1/3 cup sour cream
   1 tablespoon light cream or milk

1. Remove imperfect spinach leaves and root ends. Wash greens several times in water, lifting out of water each time so sand sinks to bottom. Drain.

2. Place greens with just the water that clings to leaves in saucepan. Cover and cook 3 to 10 minutes for spinach; 5 to 15 minutes for beet tops; 15 to 20 minutes for chicory, escarole and lettuce; 10 to 15 minutes for collards; 15 to 20 minutes for Swiss chard and mustard greens; 15 to 25 minutes for turnip greens and kale. Drain.

3. Prepare and cook fresh spinach or Swiss chard as directed above; chop and drain thoroughly.

4. Stir together spinach, mushrooms and seasonings in saucepan. Blend sour cream and light cream; pour over spinach mixture. Heat just to boiling.
