Cooking the onion and pepper: In a large pan heat the butter over medium-low heat, stir in the onion and bell pepper, and cook stirring until the onion starts to become translucent.
Cooking the spinach: Squeeze the spinach to eliminate excess liquid and add the spinach to the pan. Cook stirring until the spinach is heated through. Add the cream and cream cheese and stir. Lower heat and simmer until the mixture is creamy but there is no excess liquid. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from the heat. Sprinkle with the queso cremita.
Serving: Serve with your choice of bbq meat, or Dominican fried pork chops.
Notes
Queso cremita, as we know it in the D.R. is known as queso blanco in most of the Hispanic world. If you can't find queso cremita (or blanco) you can substitute with a mild feta.Yes, it can be made with fresh spinach, you just need to play a bit with the cooking time, but it only adds a couple of minutes.
