Easy Mediterranean Creamed Spinach Recipe Is Loaded With Lemon, Garlic & Feta Cheese

I enjoy the Mediterranean diet. Maybe it’s because my dad is from Croatia and I grew up eating my grandmother’s Old World Mediterranean cooking. Or maybe it’s because Mediterranean ingredients and cooking styles provide so many health benefits. Or maybe because Mediterranean flavors are simply delicious!

Whatever the reason, I find myself constantly drawn to Mediterranean recipes, and I love to create my own versions. Take this creamed spinach recipe, for example. This easy creamed spinach recipe is loaded with nutritious ingredients like fresh spinach, olive oil and garlic along with the creamy, delicious flavor of feta cheese.

This simple vegetarian recipe makes a perfect side dish for a wide variety of dinners during the week, or even for holidays or special occasions (I recently served it as an Easter side dish accompanying our lamb dinner). You could even use it as a topping over pasta or rice, or as a spread on crusty bread. So easy and delicious!
