This is so very good! The only change I made was to use 2lbs of spinach instead of asparagus, because my kids won't eat asparagus. I sauteed the spinach in the olive oil and the garlic. Then I followed the directions exactly as written. I will definitely be making this again! 5 Forks!!!I hope you like my photo!
