Ingredients

2 red bell peppers
3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons olive oil

    Melt 1 tablespoon butter and 1 1/2 tablespoons oil in same pot over medium-high heat. Add half of spinach and cook just until wilted, about 3 minutes. Transfer spinach to bowl with roasted peppers. Repeat with remaining 1 tablespoon butter, 1 1/2 tablespoons oil and spinach. Toss spinach and peppers to combine. Season with salt and pepper.
