Ingredients

• 
  Fresh Spinach Leaves

  1 pound

• 
  Olive Oil

  2 tablespoons

• 
  Garlic (minced)

  3 cloves

• 
  Salt and Pepper

  to taste

• 
  A squeeze of Fresh Lemon Juice (for a tangy twist)

  Optional

Steps

1. Rinse the fresh spinach leaves thoroughly under cold water to remove any dirt or impurities. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel or use a salad spinner to remove excess moisture.
2. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
3. Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for about 1 minute, or until fragrant and lightly golden. Be careful not to burn the garlic.
4. Add the fresh spinach leaves to the skillet. Using tongs or a spatula, gently toss and stir the spinach to coat it evenly with the garlic-infused oil. The spinach will begin to wilt quickly.
5. Continue cooking the spinach for about 2-3 minutes, or until it has wilted down significantly. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking.
6. Season the spinach with salt and pepper to taste. If desired, squeeze a little fresh lemon juice over the spinach for a tangy flavor.
7. Once the spinach is wilted and tender, remove the skillet from the heat.
8. Transfer the Healthy Garlic Spinach to a serving dish and serve it immediately while it's still warm.
9. Enjoy the Keto Healthy Garlic Spinach as a side dish alongside grilled meats, roasted chicken, or seafood. It's also a great addition to omelets or as a bed for poached eggs.
