This was good; however, I would omit the nutmeg. I think this was too much nutmeg and it carried a powerful taste that my husband did not care for too much. I liked it but could not say it was the best creamed spinach I've had. I think if I omit this, it'll do. Thank you!

This was easy to make, it just took time. To add more flavor the cream sauce I added 2 cloves of fresh garlic.

"MSCOUGAR",you are the "cat's meow." This recipe rocks! Next time I will reduce the nutmeg and heavy cream by half as it was a bit too spicy and the 1/2 1/2 pooled in the spinach after cooking although I squeezed it dry before putting it in with the rest. The taste was "the bomb." Never had spinach W/nutmeg before. A real treat. At LEAST five stars. - Thanx...Elfhelp...

I gave this recipe 4 Stars because I wouldn't use it "as is" without some additions. However, it is a good basic recipe & reminds me of my Granny's creamed spinach. I add(ed) finely chopped onions, Parmesan cheese, salted butter & garlic salt. I also used bagged (vs. boxed), frozen spinach heated up in the microwave. (It's the "driest" way I know to cook spinach.) I served this (my) rendition at Christmas and it was good enough that the kids ate it w/out complaint. :-) I'll have to try it with bacon, as some Reviewers suggested. That would be a nice variation, I think. Oh, yeah: I do like the nutmeg in there.

yummy! I added a crushed clove of garlic and 1/4 cup grated onion to melted butter before mixing in the cream, etc. I also used one box of frozen spinach instead of fresh.

I read the reviews before I tried this dish, but thought I would try it anyway, as many said it was watery. It turned out great, the only thing I changed, was to spin it dry after washing and I wilted the spinach in the pan, in the sauce, at med-high heat. I did not steam it before. The sauce coated the spinach just fine. I did add some cooked bacon.

I've waited awhile to review this recipe to give it a couple of days to determine if I liked it or not and I think I did - but the jury is still out. I had some difficulty with having the cream sauce stick to the spinach - when serving the spinach was on the plate and the thin cream sauce just oozed off the spinach onto everything else on the plate - pretty unappetizing. I think I will try this recipe again - perhaps I did something wrong.

Tasty flavor. Mine turned out very liquidy though. Next time I'll either cut back on the cream or will put in a lot more spinach.

I sauteed a small onion and 2 cloved of garlic in 1 Tbsp of butter until soft. Then added the seasoning and spinach. I sauteed that just a minute to warm the spinach. I added just a touch under 1/2 cup cream (that's all I had). It turned out GREAT! I'm the only one in my house who like spinach and it was gone in two meals. It was close the creamed spinach at Boston Market..only better.
