Fixed this the other night to go with Wasabi Salmon Cakes#63831 and Noodle Salad with Peanut-Lime Vinaigrette...delicious! I did use spinach, added two cloves of garlic and didn't use the full 1/4 cup vegetable broth but it was still wonderful. Thank you for a wonderful dish!

Great quick and yummy way to serve up greens! I've used this recipe with spinach, chard, and collard greens with great results. . . though for collards you might want to let them cook a few minutes longer. My only changes are to add a couple cloves of garlic at the beginning and use ground ginger (adding it in with the broth). This is a keeper!

Very simple, very fast to prepare and awesome taste. It is so delicious that I still can not believe how simple this recipe is. There must be a secret. Try it and you will love spinach from the moment of your first mouthful.
