Goat Cheese Creamed Spinach



1 ½ tablespoons low-fat cream cheese
1 tablespoon of sour cream
2 tablespoons of goat cheese
2 garlic cloves, minced
2/3 cup skim milk
3 strips of bacon, sliced into bite size pieces
¼ cup chopped onion
2 tablespoons of flour
3 1/2 cups of fresh baby spinach, stem removed and roughly chopped
¼ cup chicken stock
2 tablespoons breadcrumbs
2 tablespoons parmesan cheese

Combine cream cheese, sour cream, goat cheese, milk and garlic in a small bowl; mix well.

Cook bacon in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Just before bacon begins to brown, add onions and flour. Let cook for two minutes; stirring constantly.

Add cheese and milk mixture; cook for one minute; stirring constantly

Add spinach and stir to combine.

Add stock and cook for 3 – 4 minutes, until spinach has wilted a little bit.

Remove from heat and pour into individual ramekins or a round glass baking dish. Top with breadcrumbs and parmesan cheese.

Broil in oven for 4 – 5 minutes until cheese has browned.

Serves 2 - 4
