Great sauce even for people who don’t like spinach

Peel and finely dice the onions and garlic. Heat the fat in a saucepan. Sauté the onions and garlic, and if you like, the ham. Add the creamed spinach and broth. Cover and cook over medium heat for about 10 minutes. Meanwhile, if you like, toast the pine nuts in a dry pan. Add the cream to the spinach and bring to a boil. Season the sauce with salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Add the cooked tortellini or gnocchi to the sauce. Add the pine nuts only in the bowl.
