Gluten Free Creamed Spinach

2 - 10oz pkgs. frozen spinach
8 – Slices bacon – cut into pieces
1 – Small onion – minced
4 Tbsp – rice flour
2 tsp- Lawry’s seasoned salt

Preparation:
Cook spinach according to package directions and drain well. Snip the bacon into tiny bits with scissors. Fry the bacon bits until crisp, set aside and remove most of the bacon drippings from the pan. Sauté the onion in the pan drippings until very tender, about 10 minutes. Add the bacon bits back to the onion mixture for the last couple of minutes of cooking. Remove onion/bacon mixture from the heat and stir in rice flour, seasoned salt and pepper and garlic (it will be a paste). Blend thoroughly. Add warmed milk all at once. Return to medium heat and stir until smooth and thickened. Add spinach and mix thoroughly. Keep warm until ready to serve.
