A comfort food for those who already like spinach, and a great way to start loving this vegetable. If desired, substitute Swiss chard (silverbeet) for the spinach. If fresh spinach is unavailable, please feel free to sub frozen (thawed and drained).

1 dash of grated nutmeg
1 cup stock or 1 cup milk

1. Cook washed spinach without any additional water until tender, about 10 minutes.
2. Drain and chop fine.
3. Melt butter; add onion and garlic and brown.
4. Add remaining ingredients plus spinach and cook together for five minutes.
