  1. This is really refreshing spinach. I stayed on recipe all the way. Next time I will add the cilantro after the spinach is wilted, as I am kind of slow; and it took rather longer than a minute to wilt that much spinach. Also, I would rather the garlic and chili were given somewhat more of a chance to cook. Maybe sauté them in another pan for a minute and a half, or hold off on the lime for a minute. At any rate this takes the usual ingredients and makes them into something exotic and special. Most adult. We can eat and enjoy this, while telling the children, “Ya-ya, you don’t get any: its spinach.”
     
  2. This was a nice change of pace for sauteed spinach. I too would saute the peppers and garlic first next time and then add the spinach. Loved the lime which brightened al the flavors. Thank you Sue L for sharing the recipe.
