Creamed Spinach

Spinach is a nutritional powerhouse, rich in iron, vitamins A and K, and antioxidants. To make this dish healthier, use milk or half-and-half instead of cream. Light cream cheese and reduced-fat Parmesan can lower calories while maintaining creaminess. Consider using Greek yogurt for part of the cream. The garlic and onions add beneficial compounds. While creamy, the high spinach content provides significant nutrients. For a lighter version, skip the flour and use pureed cauliflower to thicken. Remember that creamed vegetables can help children enjoy their greens.
