Tips:
- Soaking the cashews overnight makes them easier to blend and creates a smoother cream.
- If you don't have almond milk, you can use any other non-dairy milk of your choice.
- You can also use frozen spinach instead of fresh, just make sure to thaw and drain it before adding it to the skillet.
- If you prefer a spicier creamed spinach, you can add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes to the skillet.
