Spinach with Parmesan-Bread Crumbs side dishes POINTS® Value: 1 Servings: 4 Preparation Time: 7 min Cooking Time: 8 min Level of Difficulty: Easy Garlicy, cheesy bread crumbs top tender spinach in this versatile side dish. It's so easy to make, too, thanks to bagged baby spinach. Ingredients 1 1/4 tsp olive oil, divided 1/2 cup fresh bread crumbs, coarse (made from crustless French or Italian bread) 1 Tbsp grated Parmesan cheese 1/2 tsp minced garlic 18 oz spinach, baby leaves, washed and well-drained (about 24 cups) 1/2 tsp table salt Instructions Heat 1 teaspoon of oil in a large nonstick skillet. Add bread crumbs and cook over medium heat, stirring often, until golden, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in Parmesan cheese. Spoon bread crumbs into a small bowl; set aside. Heat remaining 1/4 teaspoon of oil in same skillet. Add garlic, cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Gradually add half of spinach to skillet, tossing mixture and adding more spinach as some of it cooks down. Continue cooking and tossing, until spinach is wilted and tender, about 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from skillet and repeat with remaining spinach. Return cooked spinach to skillet; add salt and toss over low heat. Transfer to a serving bowl and sprinkle with crumbs. Or toss with half of crumbs and sprinkle remaining crumbs over each serving. Yields about 3/4 cup of spinach and 2 tablespoons of crumbs per serving.
