Sauteed Spinach with Red Onion, Bacon & Blue Cheese

EatingWell.com

Makes 2 servings
ACTIVE TIME: 15 minutes
TOTAL TIME: 15 minutes Bacon and blue cheese transform spinach into a stellar side. Popeye would be jealous. 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 cup thinly sliced red onion
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 10-ounce bag fresh spinach (see Ingredient note), tough stems removed
2 strips center-cut bacon, cooked and crumbled
1 tablespoon crumbled blue cheese Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add onion and cook, stirring, until beginning to soften, about 1 minute. Add garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds more. Add spinach and cook, stirring, until just wilted, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in bacon and sprinkle cheese on top. Serve immediately. Nutrition Information Per serving: 131 calories; 9 g fat (2 g sat, 5 g mono); 9 mg cholesterol; 9 g carbohydrate; 7 g protein; 4 g fiber; 292 mg sodium. Tip Ingredient note: The sturdier texture of mature spinach stands up better to sauteing than baby spinach and it's a more economical choice. We prefer to serve baby spinach raw.
