Add the spinach, stir, and put a lid on the pan. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes.
Pour the spinach mixture and lemon juice into a blender or food processor, and process on high until smooth. Scrape down sides as needed. If the mixture becomes too thick, add a little water or vegetable broth.
