The Absolute Best Creamed Spinach Recipe Ever

If you are using frozen spinach, press out as much liquid as possible in a mesh strainer. If using fresh, boil a pot of water and cook spinach for 1 minute. Drain and rinse with cold water. Squeeze out the liquid as much as possible.

Place a skillet on medium heat with the butter and chopped onion. Sauté for 6 to 7 minutes, or until the onion is soft and a bit brown.

Turn heat to medium-low and add the garlic, heavy cream, cream cheese, Parmesan and the pinch of nutmeg (if using). Keep stirring with a spoon to break up the cream cheese and blend and melt the cheeses.

When the cheeses are blended stir in the spinach until it is heated through.
