Ingredients

2 bunches spinach
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 -4 cloves garlic, minced
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
2 small tomatoes, peeled,seeded,and diced
1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese

Directions

1

Thoroughly wash and dry spinach and remove stems.
2

(I usually use the packaged, pre-washed spinach so that I don't get too much water in this dish. Otherwise, be sure to dry the leaves very, very well.) Using half the ingredients and working in batches, heat olive oil in a large skillet over moderate heat.
3

Saute garlic about one minute.
4

Add spinach leaves, increase heat to high, and stir until evenly wilted, about 2 minutes.
5

Add salt, pepper, and tomatoes.
6

Cook an additional minute.
7

Stir in grated Parmesan, remove from heat, taste, and adjust seasonings.
8

Serve immediately.
9

If spinach releases too much water, you can drain mixture in a colander before serving.
10

Taste and adjust seasonings again after draining.
