Spinach with Pine Nuts and Raisins

2 1/2 pounds spinach
2 to 3 tablespoons olive oil
2 small yellow onions or 6 green onions, minced
4 tablespoons raisins, plumped in hot water and drained
4 tablespoons pine nuts, toasted
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste


Rinse spinach well and remove stems. Place in a large sauté pan with only rinsing water clinging to leaves. Cook over medium heat, turning as needed until wilted, just a few minutes. Drain well and set aside.

Add olive oil to pan and place over medium heat. Add onions and sauté until tender, about 8 minutes. Add spinach, raisins, and pine nuts and sauté briefly to warm through.

Season with salt and pepper and serve warm or at room temperature.

Makes 6 servings.
