There is nothing like looking in your kitchen and finding the ingredients to try something new. You may recognize the spinach from the Low Carb Beef Stroganoff and the blue cheese from the Bacon, Blue Cheese and Apple Omelette.
Four ingredients: fresh spinach, lemon juice, blue cheese crumbles and bacon bits.
Fill a large skillet with the spinach and sprinkle about 2 T of lemon juice over the leaves. The lemon juice will help enhance the flavor of the spinach. Cover and heat over medium heat. As the leaves begin to wilt, add in about 1/2 cup of blue cheese crumbles and 1/4 cup of bacon bits.
Stir until the blue cheese begins to melt and the bacon is stirred in.
Serve and smile!

Easy and simple. Love it

I like seeing the lemon juice included! Adding acid is always important (and an alliteration).
Mar 28, 2012 @ 13:15:25
Indeed – lemon is my favorite addition to greens of any sort!
Mar 28, 2012 @ 11:30:31

Indisputable fact: Blue Cheese makes everything better!

Ooooohhhh, looks like a good one and VERY easy. I”ll try this one soon.

Mar 28, 2012 @ 12:56:17
I’m all over this
Mar 28, 2012 @ 13:01:14
Just checked out your last two posts–spinach and fish tacos! Love both! I look forward to following what you cook…
Mar 28, 2012 @ 13:43:15
Sounds so good, I love spinach! I just need to find an alternative to blue cheese (which I absolutely love, but is a no no on a very low sodium diet) I use Kroger turkey bacon bits in my salads a lot, so they would work well in this dish too
Mar 28, 2012 @ 13:58:24
A man after my own heart: I love anything with spinach on it! Thanks for posting.
Mar 28, 2012 @ 16:44:55
I will definitely have to try this as it includes 3 of my top 10 favorite foods; bacon, spinach,and blue cheese!
Mar 28, 2012 @ 17:29:19
Cooking, eating AND ranting!! Were we separated at birth?
Loving the blue cheese and spinach combo…as you could probably tell my by last post. Thanks for visiting, by the way!!
Mar 28, 2012 @ 17:34:25
I have some about-to-go-bad spinach in the fridge that needs some attention. But I don’t have any blue cheese or bacon or lemon. The only semblances of these Ingredients I do have are parmesan and ricotta cheese, turkey deli meat, and limes. Should I give it a go with these substitutions?
Mar 28, 2012 @ 17:41:56
I think I would just steam it and sprinkle some of the Parmesan on top. Let me know how it works.
Mar 28, 2012 @ 20:22:26
OK, I know my husband would love this– spinach AND blue cheese? his favorites. thanks.
Mar 28, 2012 @ 20:30:05
You love your blue cheese.
I have feta, need to stock up on the blue and spinach. Lemon on spinach, nice one.
Mar 28, 2012 @ 21:05:18

I will have to make this for my husband as soon as our greens get going in the garden. He’s positively addicted to blue cheeses.
