Ingredients

1 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 small onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 boxes chopped frozen spinach, defrosted
A few grates nutmeg
2 large beefsteak tomatoes
1/2 cup blue cheese crumbles
Chopped chives, for garnish

Directions

Place the cream in a small pot and reduce by half by gently simmering 20 minutes.

Heat a medium skillet with olive oil over medium heat, add onions and garlic, season with salt and pepper and saute until translucent, 6 to 7 minutes. Drain the spinach by wringing dry in clean kitchen towel. Separate the spinach with your hands and add to onions and garlic. Season spinach with nutmeg then stir in the reduced cream. Adjust flavor with salt and pepper.

Preheat broiler.

Trim the tops off tomatoes and scoop out the seeds. Stuff tomatoes with creamed spinach and top each with 1/4 cup blue cheese. Broil to brown the cheese. Garnish the tomatoes with chives.

Great and Improvable
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This is a great recipe. Don't change the cream, as we all know that there is no real replacement for heavy cream. I did... follow other reviewers' suggestions and bake the tomatoes at 400 for 10 minutes before flashing them under the broiler. I also would recommend mixing part of the blue cheese into the spinach mixture before stuffing as well as a little on top. (You get it in every bite that way) Lastly, I put a few breadcrumbs on the top with the blue cheese to give it a little texture variation. Really a good date night side item!Read more

This recipe was wonderful! I love getting new ideas and this one was superb. It was easy to make, but looked gourmet. The... blue cheese with the spinach was a perfect match. Thanks for such a great idea! :)Read more

Blue Cheese Completely Takes Over
Rated: 3 stars out of 5

I love creamed spinach...I love blue cheese...and I love garden fresh tomatoes. However this excellent recipe for creamed... spinach is overwelmed by the strong blue cheese. You cant taste anything else (and I even used half of the blue cheese called for). Next time I'm going to try to top these with fresh grated parmesean as I think it is a cheese that is more complimentary of creamed spinach.Read more

Amazing and so easy!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This was a hit at a recent party. The flavors were wonderful! I opted not to use nutmeg and was pleased. I did not need to... cook everything in the oven first. The reduction of the cream is important and when mixed with the spinach it reduces more.Read more
