Ingredients
- 240 grams (8.4 ounce) strained Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon fresh dill finely chopped
- ¼ lemon zest
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 50 grams (½ small) red onion minced

- 25 grams (½ medium-sized) spring onion mostly the green part finely chopped
- 350 grams Fresh Spinach Leaves or frozen thawed spinach
Instructions
- In a bowl whisk to combine the Greek yogurt, dill, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Add 3-4 tablespoons of water to make the mixture a bit more runny depending on how thick the yogurt you are using is, and set the bowl aside.
- Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a large non-stick pan over high heat.
- Add the red onion and garlic and drop the heat to low. Cook until caramelized and golden.
- Add the spring onion and the spinach in batches. Give it a minute or two after each batch for the spinach to wilt before adding the next one. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
- Take the pan off the heat. Stir in the Greek yogurt mixture.
- Serve with freshly ground pepper on top.
- You can store in an airtight food container in the fridge for up to 2 days.
