This one isn't just spinach but I use it frequently.

Mixed-Herb Pesto
2 tablespoons pine nuts, toasted
2 large garlic cloves
2 cups torn spinach
3/4 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves
1/2 cup arugula leaves
1/2 cup fresh oregano leaves
1/4 cup fresh thyme leaves
1/4 cup minced fresh chives
2 tablespoons (1/2 ounce) grated fresh Parmesan cheese
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

Drop pine nuts and garlic through food chute with food processor on, and process until minced. Add spinach and next 7 ingredients (spinach through salt); process until finely minced. With processor on, slowly pour oil through food chute; process until well-blended. Spoon into a zip-top heavy-duty plastic bag; store in refrigerator.

Yield: 3/4 cup (serving size: 1 tablespoon)
