Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or spray with Nonstick Cooking Spray (as needed).

In a large nonstick skillet heat Olive Oil (1/2 Tbsp) over medium heat. Add Garlic (3 cloves) and saute for 1 minute. Add half of Fresh Baby Spinach (7 1/2 cups), Salt (1/4 tsp) and Ground Black Pepper (1/4 tsp). Stir until spinach is wilted. Continue to add handfuls of spinach until all spinach is wilted.
