This was really, really good! First time to cook OR eat fresh spinich. It's much milder than the "canned stuff", which is now a thing of the past for me. It also has a nice texture. But, it REALLY does cook down. Used 2 8oz bags which provided enough for 2 generous side portions and 1 smaller portion for lunch tomorrw.

Very easy side dish to make. I do cut back on the salt though because I like to add grated parmesan to the spinach.
I have made this kind of recipe before but never thought to add lemon. I love that addition.

This is a great recipe for spinach, easy to make and good for you, too!! When I make this, I cut way back on the salt. For a different flavor, I sometimes add soy sauce. Also, I've made this recipe with swiss chard - works great!!

This just did not live up to my expectations. I will never make this again. Too much work for an unbalanced payoff. It looked great on TV and made sense on paper.

I added red pepper flakes for a little heat, as someone else suggested. I was unsure about the lemon juice, but added it anyway and was pleasantly surprised - it wasn't overpowering at all, just fresh and delicious! I will definitely be making this all the time - the texture is so much better than canned or frozen spinach. The only thing is, watch the amount of salt - I added it during cooking and afterward, and it was too much. Just taste before adding more.

This is my favorite way to cook my favorite veggie. Just be careful not to overcook - just 'til wilted is perfect. If I'm cooking for friends who like spicy I sometimes add a pinch of red pepper flakes.

I've always loved the taste of fresh spinach, so I found the recommended 2 tsp of salt to be a bit excessive and unnecessary. It really overpowered the flavor of the spinach. I would reduce the salt to 1/2 tsp or less. However, the garlic, lemon, and oil complemented the spinach nicely.
