Here is a side dish for a simple midweek Passover feast to satisfy kids
and grown-ups alike.

I am not a fan of creamed vegetables. But I found a version of this recipe
in an old synagogue cookbook and decided a little creaminess during a
holiday minus soft bread is a good thing. If your Passover dietary
restrictions prohibit soy, simply saute the spinach with the onion and
garlic for an easy side dish. Garnish with almonds, if desired.
