“You don’t have to be a spinach fan to happily eat up these greens,” assures Dotty Egge, a field editor from Pelican Rapids, Minnesota. Soy sauce gives her energy-packed dish an Asian twist. “I serve it over rice or as a side. Try garnishing it with toasted sesame seeds.”

I had some spinach that was getting a little old and I didn't want to eat it for salads anymore, so I used it to make this recipe. It was perfect. I was out of chicken broth so I substituted white wine. Delicious!
