Mashed Potatoes With Spinach

The mashed potatoes Rachael made on Monday’s "30 Minute Meals" looked interesting so I tried them tonight, minus the cod croquettes. They’re basically mashed potatoes with spinach added at the end. The heat of the potatoes wilts the spinach. They were delicious, I could easily eat just them for dinner and forget any meat. It’s makes regular mashed potatoes even more of an indulgence. Since the spinach is only slightly wilted, it adds body to the potatoes and makes it more of a side dish along the lines of an au gratin, as opposed to a starch like rice.
