    Prepare the Spinach

    Rinse the fresh spinach thoroughly under cold water. Remove any tough stems and chop the leaves roughly.

    Make the Cream Sauce

    Reduce the heat to low, add the heavy cream and cream cheese to the skillet, stirring until the cream cheese is fully melted and incorporated.

  5. 5

    Combine and Season

    Add the cooked spinach to the cream sauce. Stir in Parmesan cheese, salt, black pepper, and nutmeg. Cook for an additional 3-5 minutes until heated through and creamy.
