Introduction

This can be altered in many ways to suit the taste of the cook. Cook vegetables to desired doneness. Try different dressings if preferred or try add-ins like crumbled cheeses, pine nuts, or bacon crumbles. Sliver some onions or sautee minced garlic into it for added flavor. Just be sure to account for the nutrional differences that result from these or other additions! If cooked beyond "wilted," this can become more of a hot vegetable side dish than a salad and just as delicious! This can be altered in many ways to suit the taste of the cook.

Ingredients

    1 bunch fresh spinach
    12 oz. fresh mushrooms, sliced (can use more or less to taste)
    1 Tbsp. olive oil
    3 Tbsp. balsamic vinegar (or to taste)
    1 large tomato, cut into wedges

Directions

Heat olive oil in skillet over medium heat. Add mushrooms and sautee to desired doneness. Add one tablespoon of balasamic vinegar when close to done. Removed mushrooms with slotted spoon and set aside. Reduce heat to low and add spinach to skillet. Add desired amount of balsamic vinegar (approximately one to two additional tablespoons) as well as tomato wedges. Cook spinach briefly - just until wilted and until tomatoes have just begun to cook. Add mushrooms back to skillet. Serve immediately. Garnish with added extras, if desired (see intro description).
