Potato and Spinach Saute’

This recipe is so easy!  Sometimes it’s the simple ingredients, not the complexity of the dish that makes it amazing.  This potato saute is great served alongside your morning eggs, or as a side dish for dinner.  I love cooking leftover baked potatoes this way.  The buttery potatoes, sweet vidalia onions and fresh, organic spinach complement each other beautifully.  Throw some cooked and crumbled turkey sausage in and make it a meal.  For vegans, use a butter alternative and veggie crumbles.  It’s also a great way to use leftover baked potatoes.  Enjoy~
