Fire Cider in the Kitchen: Creamed Spinach

When winter starts to fade and we see hints of sunshine and warm weather, we tend to start looking for fresh, whole foods after months of comfort foods. Getting enough leafy greens in your diet can be a challenge, but it's a bit easier when they're made mouth-wateringly delicious.

Our Founder, Dana, created this yummy recipe for creamed spinach that's one of our favorite dishes here at Fire Cider.
