Wilted Greens and Pine Nuts
Ingredients
- 6 C. spinach or mixed greens
- 1/2 Tbs. olive oil
- 2-3 cloves minced garlic
- 1 tsp. fresh lemon juice
- 1/2 tsp. pine nuts, toasted
Directions
Wash and trim spinach of any bad spots or thick stems and dry. Heat oil in large skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and lemon juice. Sauté for 1 minute. Turn heat high and add the spinach, 1/2 tsp. salt and 1/8 tsp. pepper. Using tongs move the spinach around so that all of it is coated with the oil and garlic. Toss in the pine nuts. Season more if needed.
Note: To toast nuts place them in a dry skillet and toast over low heat with no oil. They will scorch easily so watch carefully and stir or shake the pan as they toast. They will take about 5 minutes to toast.
