Recipe of the day - Spinach with white beans

This is a very easy recipe that I discovered in a Taste of Home cookbook.  It's a quick side dish to make on a weeknight after a long day of work.  Both Michael and I enjoy and I've share this with friends who also like it!

1 bag of spinach
1 can of white beans of your choice
1 clove of garlic, minced
olive oil

Drain and rinse the can of beans.  Saute garlic in olive oil over medium heat.  Once the garlic gets very fragrant, add the beans.  Cook until the beans are heated through.  Add the bag of spinach.  Saute spinach until it begins to turn a vibrant green.  Serve hot.

*You can use whatever white bean of your choice.  We like both northern beans and cannellini beans.  Northern beans tend to soften quickly and will be a bit mushier than cannellini, but both still taste great!

*Cook the spinach to your desired state of doneness.  For this dish, I don't let mine wilt too much, but that's just my personal taste.

Enjoy!
