Ingredients
Cooking spray2 thick slices of onion, chopped4 medium mushrooms, chopped1/4 cup soy flour1 cup skim milk2 TBS fat free sour cream1 lb (about 6 cups) fresh or frozen spinach, choppedSeasonings to taste
Directions
Spray a large non-stick skillet with cooking spray. Saute onions and mushrooms. Remove onions and mushrooms or move them to one side of the pan and respray pan. Add flour, stirring continuously until flour just begins to brown.

Slowly add milk, a little at a time, stirring continuously. When sauce is smooth and begins to boil, add the sauteed onions and mushrooms. Season to taste (I usually just use a pepper blend and about a TBS of red wine vinegar).

Add spinach and sour cream and continue cooking until spinach is just wilted and heated through, stirring occasionally to coat evenly with sauce.

Makes 3 servings of just over 1 cup each.

    You can also substitute plain yogurt for the sour cream. I like to add a little curry to spice it up. - 3/26/07

    This is just wonderful! I put it on baked potatoes instead of sour cream. I have never had creamed spinach before...and found we really like it done this way. Thank you for sharing. - 10/20/09

    My (non-spinach-eating) kids loved this and so did I! I added a bit of olive oil with the flour, and some beef bouillon with the milk. Truly great! - 1/26/09

    Yummy! My son is a big spinach eater, but he typpically likes it wilted with just a little hot sauce. I made this, but added the hot sauce and I think he has a new favorite food! - 11/2/09
