Crunchy peanuts and light coconut milk make this exotically-spiced spinach dish a standout.

Ingredients

Chopped frozen spinach

32 oz, baby variety

Olive oil

1 tsp

Uncooked onion(s)

Light unsweetened coconut milk

½ cup(s)

Fresh lime juice

  1. Cook spinach according to package instructions; drain well in colander and press out any remaining liquid.
  2. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add onion, 1/2 teaspoon salt, curry and ginger; cook, stirring frequently, until onion is softened, about 10 minutes.
