What’s an easy way to encourage little ones to eat their spinach? Blend it with a ripe pear, which lends a hint of natural sweetness to the mix.
Special Diets:
Method
Combine spinach and 1 tablespoon water in a medium saucepan.
Cover and cook over medium heat for 3 minutes.
Uncover, toss well and cook until spinach is just wilted, about 1 minute more.
Add pear, cover and cook until tender, about 5 minutes.
Carefully transfer spinach mixture to a food processor and puree until smooth.
