Thanksgiving is fast approaching! Were you invited to a last-minute Friendsgiving and need to bring a dish? Did you burn the green bean casserole and need a quick substitution?
Well, I’ve got a perfect dish for you. You probably already have all of the ingredients in your refrigerator. It’s Spinach Delicious!
I made this last year to go with the Stuffed Beef Heart and it was a big hit (especially with Todd)–but I forgot to take a picture of it, so I didn’t include it. I actually forgot to post about it twice. But anyhoo, by popular demand, here is the recipe for Spinach Delicious from the Better Homes & Gardens Vegetable Cook Book.
Really, this couldn’t be any easier. This is done in all of 10 minutes.
I liken it to a lighter, simpler alternative to traditional creamed spinach. With a bit of a kick (a full 2 tbsp of horseradish! BH&G, you’re crazy!).
Here it is with two of my favorite things–broiled lamb chops and twice-baked potatoes:
It ain’t fancy. But it’s yummy. And would go will with all types of meat. I highly recommend this little dish.
Fingers crossed that it doesn’t happen, but please keep Spinach Delicious in mind on Thanksgiving in case any vegetable emergencies arise.
I triple this recipe for our family of four, and we never have any left over. It is one of my favorites of childhood.
Cool! So good. So simple!
I was wondering about that combination too…sounds amazing. xx
Mmmm – spinach and horseradish? YeS!
This just popped into my head, off subject – have you been over to see Meta’s 1942 meals? I think you’ll get a kick out of her blog based on Meta Given’s Encyclopedia of Modern cooking.

I do follow that blog. I enjoy it very much.
Hey, I often have vegetable emergencies! And I often have spinach in my freezer! But I might not wait for one! 🙂
Let me know if you try it!
The term “vegetable emergencies” makes me smile. 🙂 Also, aren’t Better Homes and Gardens vintage cookbooks are the best?
