Ingredients

  • ¼ cup 60mL avocado oil
  • 12 cups ~336g fresh spinach
  • 1 tbsp 15g minced garlic
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp pepper
  • 1 tbsp + 1 tsp lemon juice

Garnishes:

  • tsp red pepper flakes
  • tsp freshly-cracked pepper

Instructions

  • In a very large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat, heat oil. Add minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
