A quick and healthy take on the steakhouse favorite.
RECIPE INGREDIENTS
2 teaspoons  extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 cup  minced shallot or red onion
1 10-ounce bag  fresh spinach (see Ingredient note), tough stems removed
1 tablespoon  butter
1 tablespoon  flour
1/2 cup  1% milk
1/8 teaspoon  grated nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon  salt
1/8 teaspoon  freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons  grated Parmesan or Pecorino romano cheese

Ingredient Note:  The sturdier texture of mature spinach stands up better to sauteing than baby spinach and it's a more economical choice. We prefer to serve baby spinach raw.

Heat butter in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Add flour and cook, stirring, until smooth and bubbling, about 30 seconds. Add milk, nutmeg, salt and pepper; cook, whisking constantly, until thickened, about 1 minute. Stir the spinach into the sauce. Sprinkle with grated cheese and serve.
