Another Reason for Popeye (and You) to Eat Spinach

Put down the can, Popeye, we've got a better spinach recipe for you to try. Really though, spinach is one of my favorite greens to have on hand to make any of the following recipes quickly.

It can be served raw in salads with apples, walnuts, cranberries, a little feta or goat cheese, and a balsamic vinagrette, for example.

Or, my favorite, sauteed.
Heat the skillet to medium-high, add copious amounts of spinach (it cooks down to nothing), drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with seasoned salt and you've got yourself a winner. Let it cook until the spinach wilts and the olive oil and spices are well distributed. This is a great side to any meat dish, or combined with fresh tomatoes.

Another favorite sauteed spinach dish: on medium-high heat, combine spinach, olive oil, thinly sliced apples, red onion, salt, pepper, and cheddar. Saute until the spinach is wilted and the apples are cooked. The cheddar can be added after you've taken it off the heat or at the end so that it melts a little.
Ta-dah! No more boring spinach.
