Spinach (I ate this a lot growing up. We all loved it and still do)
8 oz spinach
1 onion, cut up
1/3 c water
1/2 tsp salt
Put cut up onion in bottom of large pan and pour the water on top. Add spinach and salt. Cook on high and when it boils turn to med low. When spinach is "wilted" let pan cool down a bit and then "pulse" it in blender. Put aside. In same pot melt 1/2 cube of butter. Add 3 Tbsp flour and boil that quickly (it will make a roux) then add 1 c half and half, 1 Tbsp sugar and a little nutmeg. Add spinach mixture to it and it should be thick and creamy. Serve on top of potatoes. (We always had an egg on the side with it too. My brothers ate it because my Mom told them that's what Popeye eats and gets his muscles).
