Gourmet spinach?

I'm sure we all would love to have a totally healthy alkaline diet but sometimes those green vegetables just don't look that appealing....juicy spinach? uggh...Well, I found a delicious, healthy recipe that makes a great side dish to any meal or even a main meal for those of you who are vegetarians :-)

Enjoy!

Spinach Mashed Potatoes

Peel, cook and mash 6-8 large potatoes

Add:
1 tsp salt
1/4c. butter
1/4 tsp pepper
1 T chopped chives(or other seasoning)
3/4c. yogurt or SC
4oz cream cheese
1-10oz frozen spinach
(chopped, cooked and well drained)

I used my Kitchen Aid Mixer--a blender would also work to incorporate everything. Add milk if too stiff--put in casserole.

Sprinkle with: 1 c. cheddar cheese

Bake 400 degrees for 20min.

Note: can be made a day ahead and baked just before serving at 400 degrees for 30-35min or even frozen for later! Serves 8-10
