I like trying new things, coming up with newer and newer recipes. This is one of the few exceptions. It may sound surprising, but one of my favorite dishes from childhood is spinach. And now, I finally understand why my mom used to make it so many times, not only because it’s simply delicious, but it’s very easy to make and it’s incredibly quick. However, I felt I had to spice it up a bit to make it exciting. And all you need for that are some good, crispy baked potatoes. Try it out, prepare it for your little ones, and let me know in the comments whether they liked it or not (hopefully the will).
