For enhanced flavor, toast the pecans in a dry skillet over medium heat for 3-5 minutes, or until fragrant. Feel free to substitute other nuts, such as almonds or walnuts, for the pecans. If you don't have fresh spinach, you can use frozen spinach, thawed and squeezed dry. Leftovers can be enjoyed cold as a salad. Add a drizzle of balsamic vinaigrette for extra zest. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to your liking.
