This was wonderful! This recipe will make you want spinach all the time. Other reviewers said its too lemony, so I added half the lemon juice and added more until it suited my taste.

This was an absolute hit with my family and guests. Everyone who ate wanted the recipe. It has become a staple in my home. We eat spinach, now, once or twice a week. If I could give more than 5 stars I would.

I had a 10 oz bag of spinach on hand and was looking for a new recipe, so I thought I'd give this a try. As written, it is very good, but the next time I tried adding one clove of pressed garlic with the water, and used garlic salt instead of the the plain salt. With the addition of the garlic I would definitely rate this as a "5 Star" recipe. Also, I have to double this recipe when I make it, because we can't get enough...even my picky 12-year old loves it!

A very quick, tasty alternative to just plain cooked spinach. I used about half as much lemon juice and a dash of nutmeg.

This was okay. It was super easy, but I think it needed a little something else, maybe some parmesan. I served it with the "broiled tilapia parmesan" from this site.

My husband and I found Spinach Saute to be wonderful. We are both Diabetic. With using fat free cream cheese and adding a little fresh garlic this is a keeper for us! This is the 1st review for me and that means it is a great recipe!

I love spinach, and this is now one of my favorite ways to prepare it! This was very creamy with a bit of tang from the lemon juice. I added a little garlic powder and pepper too, and that really rounded out the flavor. Yum! - Update- I've made this many times now, and sometimes I throw in some chopped tomato, red pepper flakes, and pine nuts for a different twist. That's delicious too!

This was my first experience cooking fresh spinach, so it's very possible that I did something wrong on this one. I used a whole bag of fresh spinach and still thought there was way too much cream cheese. My husband thought it was just okay, but I really didn't care for it. Thanks for the recipe anyway...

This really couldn't have been any easier to make and a great way to use up lots of extra fresh spinach since it cooks down a lot. I added some garlic and it really wasn't necessary at all. The lemon juice made it taste really bright and clean, and reduced fat cream cheese made it taste indulgent. I served it with brown rice and grilled chicken. I had enough extra sauce that it tasted great over the rice. This isn't a really pretty side dish, but a completely delicious one to accompany a super quick mid-week meal. From pulling ingredients out of the refrigerator to sitting down to eat this was done in under 15 minutes including grilling the chicken.

This was a tasty side dish - nothing spectacular to warrant 5 stars. I used 1/4 cup cream cheese, 4-5 cups fresh chopped young spinach, 2 T fresh lemon juice and 1 tsp lemon rind, and added 2 T grated parmesan cheese. The lemon flavor was just right for the dish - as I prepared it. I served it with shrimp stuffed flounder and a salad. For those on WW - this is 3 points per serving (based on the way I prepared it - using less cream cheese and more spinach).

This recipe was really good; light, fresh and tangy and an unusual taste. I added the garlic as well as using 2 bunches of spinach. A nice change from the ordinary!

I used fat-free cream cheese to make this a declicious low-fat/low-calorie side dish. This would also be a great way to get kids to eat their leafy greens. The dish is fast, simple, and healthy!

This recipe was fast and easy to prepare. A 9 oz bag of spinach cooks down to very little, so adjust accordingly. I took the advice of other reviewers and sauted a large clove of minced garlic before adding the water. I also added about 1/4 cup bacon bits. Delicious! My husband loved it!

Hmmm, not sure what happened with this dish, but it surely didn't turn out for me. I'm not entirely certain it was the recipes fault, so I want to give it another go. I followed everything to a T but sadly, it wasn't even edible to me. Thanks for the recipe anyway, I plan to give it another go...

Pretty good. Definitely easy and quick to make. I'm a meat lover, so next time I am going to try it with bacon. It could also probably use some garlic.
