Ingredients

    2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
    10 ounces fresh baby spinach
    1 Cup Fresh Mushrooms

Heat the oil in a medium skillet over medium high heat until it shimmers. Add the Mushrooms and cook until almost done. Add the spinach and saute, turning with tongs, until spinach is wilted and all the liquid has evaporated, about 6 minutes. Reserve spinach.
