Lemon Bacon-Almond Spinach

A skillet of spinach becomes the side everyone talks about when it gets bright lemon, crispy bacon, toasted almonds, and a polished balsamic finish. Fast, colorful, and proof that a vegetable can absolutely have main-character energy.

Method
 

  1. Heat Garlic Olive Oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Stir in Lemon Zest Garlic for 30 seconds.
  2. Add spinach by the handful, turning until just wilted. Remove from heat and fold in bacon, almonds, Champagne Balsamic, and lemon zest.
  3. Season with pepper and serve immediately with lemon wedges.

Notes

Time: 15 min
Kitchen tip: Keep the heat moving and stop while the spinach still looks glossy green—the residual heat will finish the job.
