Recipe
Here's a guest post by Peter Aliferi from Buon Appetito Providence about how to make a creamy alfredo sauce with spinach. Enjoy!
This recipe screams big flavor while whispering simple preparation!! After all, we all want our guests/family/friends to think we slaved over such a delicious dish. I spent a few days pondering the ingredients to this recipe; finally coming up with a recipe worthy of the TV show I host. This recipe is tasty and healthy, thanks to the spinach.
Difficulty (Scale from 1-10): 5 Makes: 4-6 servings
Ingredients
One 10 ounce package of frozen chopped spinach (thawed) 1/4 cup of olive oil, divided 1 clove of garlic - crushed 1/4 teaspoon of crushed red pepper 2 cubes of chicken bouillon 1 1/2 cups of heavy cream 3/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
Salt & black pepper to taste
Preparation
In a medium sized skillet combine 4 tablespoons of olive oil (divided from the 1/4 cup), crushed garlic clove, spinach, bouillon cubes, and crushed red pepper. Sauté over medium high heat until the garlic turns golden brown (7-10 minutes), making sure that the bouillon cubes are completely dissolved, then remove from heat.
In a blender, combine cooked spinach mixture, heavy cream, and parmesan cheese. Liquefy mixture until it reaches a uniform consistency. Add salt and black pepper to taste, then serve over a pound of your favorite pasta.
Enjoy your meal!!
