Ingredients
Four 6-ounce bags of pre-washed baby spinach
2 cups Silk Unsweetened Soymilk
1 bay leaf
1-tablespoon butter or olive oil
1-tablespoon minced shallot
2 tablespoons unbleached flour
3/4-teaspoon kosher salt
Pinch of freshly grated or ground nutmeg
Freshly ground black pepper

Preparation
Place spinach in a large saucepan or stockpot with 1/2 cup of water.
Cook covered over medium heat until the leaves are wilted, about 4-5 minutes. Drain in a colander and let cool. Press or squeeze out the excess water from the spinach and finely chop. Set aside in a medium bowl. 

In a saucepan heat the Silk® Soymilk with the bay leaf to just below the boiling point and set aside. In another saucepan heat the butter over medium high heat and sauté the minced shallots for 2-3 minutes to soften. 

Sift in the flour and cook, stirring with a wooden spoon over medium heat until the flour is browned slightly in color about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool slightly. Slowly whisk in the warm Silk® Soymilk and return the saucepan to the heat. Bring the sauce to a boil and reduce the heat to a simmer, stirring often to prevent lumps and cook for about 6-8 minutes until it reaches the consistency of a thick cream sauce. Remove the bay leaf. 

Mix in the spinach. Season with the salt, nutmeg and add freshly ground pepper to taste.

You can cut a lot off the prep time if you just buy the frozen spinach.
