I had a chance to sit down on Monday evening and caught a little bit of Emeril Live.  Emeril had a few really good looking items on the table that night, including a delicious looking 48 oz. Bone-In Ribeye.  So, for Valentine&#8217;s Day, I decided to try the Cremed Spinach recipe.  <\/p>\n<p>I started with a large bag of fresh spinach.  This really cooks down, so it&#8217;s hard to get too much.  Instead of boiling or steaming the spinach, I sauted it in a couple tablespoons of Olive Oil and a dash of salt.  It only took a couple of minutes.  While the spinach is cooking, take 2 Tbsp of corn starch and dissolve it in about a cup of half-n-half.  Then place cream mixture in a pan over low heat.  As the mixture heats, it will thicken rapidly.  When thickened, quickly add 1\/4 cup shredded cheddar and a 1\/2 cup parmesean cheese.  Toss cooked spinach in the cheese sauce and place in a casserole dish.  Top with a little extra shredded cheese and place in the oven at 350 degrees for about 20 minutes or so.  Yum!!<\/p>\n<p>Note, if the cheese sauce is too thick for you, add a little extra milk while over a low heat and thin the sauce to your desired thickness.  Then proceed to add the spinach and go from there.  Good Luck!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This week&#8217;s recipe didn&#8217;t actually come from one of my books on hand &#8211; shocking!
