How to Make Delicious Dairy-Free Creamed Spinach

If you like spinach, you’ll love this yummy side dish— a contemporary twist on comforting creamed spinach — without the cream. Silken tofu stands in beautifully for the high-fat stuff. For those times when spinach is in abundance from your garden or CSA, this recipe doubles easily.

Ingredients for dairy-free creamed spinach

You’ll need about a pound of well-washed spinach or rinsed baby spinach, half of a 12-ounce carton extra-firm silken tofu, a tablespoon of vegan butter, and a little fresh dill. Place the spinach in a stir-fry pan or soup pot; cook briefly just until it’s all wilted, adding it in batches if need be.
