Sauteed Wild Mushrooms with Spinach

Tonight's dinner was, in spite of myself, pretty tasty! I bought ground beef 2 nights ago to make Italian Burgers from a recent Cooking Light. Took the beef out and it looked like it was working on growing legs, sooooooooo plain burgers from the freezer made an appearance. The only actual recipe that got made was this one for Sauteed Wild Mushrooms with Spinach. We're seriously lacking in the green/vegetable department, so this was perfect!!

For this recipe, I used an 8oz carton of sliced button mushrooms and an 8oz carton of creminis. You definitely need to sautee the spinach in batches. It looks like a ton, but it's really not. The spinach comes out flavorful, but not overly flavorful. I also felt that it needed a pinch or 2 of salt at the end. This recipe isn't earth shattering, but it was tasty and a nice mild side item for dinner!
