Cheesy Spinach Skillet

You can make this with fresh spinach instead if you want -- it would probably use about 4 cups of chopped up fresh spinach.  But frozen is cheaper and easier.  We eat this as a main dish, but you could use it as a side if you wanted to.

Cheesy Spinach Skillet

1 cup rice -- cooked
1/2  cup shredded Cheddar
1 package frozen spinach -- thawed
2 cups onion -- chopped
1 1/2  Tbsp. oil
1 clove garlic -- minced
1 1/2  Tbsp. soy sauce 

In a large skillet, saute the onions and garlic in oil until onions are transparent. Stir in cooked rice and put spinach leaves on top. Cover the pan and cook over medium heat for 5 minutes. Stir the leaves into the rice mixture underneath. Add the cheese and soy sauce; stir until the cheese melts and holds the mixture together somewhat -- add more cheese if necessary.

(Note:  More cheese is generally necessary, isn't it?)
