Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add spinach; cook and stir until wilted. Drain in a colander, squeezing out as much liquid as possible.

Step 2

Melt butter in the same skillet over medium heat. Add onion and garlic; cook and stir until tender, about 5 minutes. Add spinach and stir in heavy cream. Tear provolone cheese into small pieces and lay on top of spinach mixture. Stir until cheese is melted and coats spinach.

Step 3

Stir in Parmesan cheese. Continue to cook and stir until thickened. Season with salt and pepper; serve hot.
