Ingredients
Scale
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 lb mushrooms (cremini, button, or a mix), sliced
- 4 cups fresh spinach, cleaned
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp lemon juice, freshly squeezed
- Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
- Prep the Ingredients: Wash and pat dry the mushrooms, then slice evenly. Clean and dry the spinach. Mince the garlic and juice the lemon.
- Sauté the Mushrooms: Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook for 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they soften and turn a deep brown.
