5 ounces Baby Spinach (1 bag of Dole, or similar brand baby spinach)
3 cups potatoes, rough diced (I prefer red potatoes diced, skin on is fine)
1 cup heavy cream
1 ½ cups chicken broth
1 tablespoon garlic, minced
½ cup shallot, diced
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 teaspoons ground black pepper
1 tablespoon fresh parsley
¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
2 tablespoons butter (1 teaspoon to saute the onion and garlic, the rest to add to the potatoes)
½ cup parmesan cheese, grated as a garnish

1
In a large sauce pan and 1 teaspoon of butter add the garlic and onion and cook 1 minute, just to get the raw flavor out and start cooking the onion.
2
Add the chicken broth, cream and potatoes bring to medium heat.
3
Cook 10-12 minutes until soft but not too soft.
4
You want a little texture to them.
5
When you mash them with a fork you don't want them completely fall apart.
6
Then go ahead mash them up.
7
Last step -- add the spinach.
8
Cover and cook on medium until the spinach is wilted.
9
Just until wilted.
10
3-4 minutes if that.
11
Season with salt and pepper and a dash of nutmeg.
12
I like to add a teaspoon of fresh parsley and a dash of red pepper flakes.
13
Add the rest of the butter and If it is too thin, just add some more chicken broth or for a more creamy texture you can add so more cream.
14
Don't be afraid to add more broth or more cream if you want.
15
There is no right or wrong.
