Creamed Spinach A La Lawry'S - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 (10 ounce) packages frozen chopped spinach, thawed
5 slices bacon
1 small onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons flour
1 1/4 teaspoons Lawry's Seasoned Salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper (or to taste)
2 cups milk

Preparation

Drain spinach well and squeeze out excess moisture with hands; chop finely and set aside.
Fry bacon in heavy skillet until crisp; remove, drain and chop.
Saute onion and garlic in bacon drippings.
add flour, Lawry's Seasoned Salt and pepper.
Blend thoroughly.
Slowly add milk, stirring constantly.
until thickened.
Add spinach and bacon; heat thoroughly.
For a healthier, but still very tasty version I microwaved the bacon wrapped in paper towels and used 1 tbs Smart Choice oil to saute.
