Creamed Spinach

• 4 tablespoons butter
• 4 tablespoons flour
• 14 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup whole milk or 1 cup cream
• 4 tablespoons butter
• 2 tablespoons finely chopped onions
• 16 ounces frozen chopped spinach
• white sauce
• 12 cup sour cream
• salt
• pepper
• sliced tomatoes (optional)
• sliced provolone cheese (optional)

1. To prepare white sauce:
2. Melt butter, add flour and salt.
3. Whisk continuously for about 5 minutes or until you have a nice roux.
4. Slowly add milk or cream, stirring until thick.
5. To prepare creamed spinach:
6. Melt butter in a pan, add onion.
7. Saute for 2 minutes.
8. Add spinach (frozen or thawed) and cook until spinach is thawed and warm.
9. Add white sauce and sour cream.
10. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
11. At this point, you can get really fancy and top with sliced provolone and tomatoes and stick under the broiler for a few minutes.
12. Note: I have used whole wheat flour to make the white sauce with no bad effects.
