Ingredients

one 10 ounce package of frozen chopped spinach (thawed)
1/4 cup of olive oil, divided
1 clove of garlic - crushed
1/4 teaspoon of crushed red pepper
2 cubes of chicken bouillon
1 1/2 cups of heavy cream
3/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
black pepper to taste

Preparation

In a medium sized skillet combine 4 tablespoons of olive oil (divided from the 1/4 cup), crushed garlic clove, spinach, bouillon cubes, and crushed red pepper.

In a blender, combine cooked spinach mixture, heavy cream, remaining olive oil, and parmesan cheese. Liquefy mixture until it reaches a uniform consistency. Add salt and black pepper to taste, then serve over a pound of your favorite pasta.
