Creamy Brie Spinach with Fennel


Ingredients:
2 - 9 oz.bags fresh spinach
1 Tbsp. butter
1 cup chopped fennel (1/2 large bulb)
1/2 cup sliced shallots (2 small)
1 tsp. fennel seeds, crushed
8 oz. Ile de France® Brie (rind removed), sliced
2 Tbsp.heavy cream or crème fraîche
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. ground black pepper

Directions:

Set aside a few slices of Brie (about 2 oz.) for garnish and refrigerate. Cube remaining Brie and set aside.

Steam spinach in a basket on the stove or in the microwave until wilted, 1-2 minutes, and cool. When cool enough to handle, squeeze out excess moisture. Meanwhile, melt butter in a small nonstick saucepan over low heat. Add fennel, shallots and fennel seed. Cook covered, stirring occasionally until softened, 5 minutes. Add Brie, cream, salt and pepper; stir until cheese is melted, 1 minute. Stir in spinach and cook until heated through, 1-2 minutes.
