under 30 minutes
ingredients
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/2 onion
20 ounces fresh baby spinach
salt and pepper
1 1/2 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon flour
1 cup milk
3/4 cup sharp cheddar cheese, grated
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
salt and pepper
directions
Preheat oil in deep pot with oil over medium heat. Slice onions in 1/4 inch slices. Add to preheated pan and saute until soften, about five minutes.
Increase heat to medium high. Add spinach to onions, working in batches or adding a couple handfuls at a time allowing to saute down before the next addition. When all spinach has been added and wilted, add salt and pepper to taste then transfer to a colander to drain.
Next, melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add flour and stir to break up lumps. Allow to bubble, stirring constantly for about a minute. Add milk and whisk or stir to combine.
Raise heat to medium high and bring to a simmer, stirring constantly. Sauce should thicken once boiling. Reduce heat to medium low. Add cheeses and stir until melted. Season with cayenne and salt.
Add spinach to sauce. Adjust seasoning if necessary with salt and pepper.
