Personal Notes:
This only makes 2-3 servings. Spinach is deceptive. Since it contains so much moisture, when you cook it what seems like a lot is really very little.

*To smash the garlic, peel it and place on a cutting board. Take your chef’s knife and put the flat side on the garlic bulb, with the sharp side away from you. Smack the knife with the heel of your palm. This allows you to release the garlic flavor without inundating your recipe with garlic. Spinach is delicate, so if you use minced garlic, garlic is all you will taste.
