Ingredients:
2 tbsp olive oil (or butter)
1 large red onion, sliced
8 oz mushrooms, sliced (white or cremini)
2–3 large handfuls of fresh spinach (or baby spinach)
3–4 cloves garlic, minced (optional)
Salt and black pepper, to taste
A splash of soy sauce or balsamic vinegar (optional, for flavor boost)
Instructions:
1. Preheat the griddle to medium heat. Add olive oil (or butter).
2. Cook the onions: Toss on the sliced red onions, and cook until they begin to soften and caramelize (about 3–4 minutes).
3. Add mushrooms: Stir in the mushrooms, season lightly with salt and pepper, and let them cook until browned and tender (another 4–5 minutes).
4. Add garlic (if using): Cook for 30–60 seconds, stirring so it doesn’t burn.
5. Wilt the spinach: Add spinach in batches, stirring as it wilts down. This only takes about 2–3 minutes.
6. Finish: Taste and adjust seasoning. Add a splash of soy sauce, balsamic, or a squeeze of lemon juice for brightness.
