- Roughly chop spinach.
- Melt 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter in a small microwavable bowl or a small pan over low heat. Add Harissa Spice Blend and half the honey (use all for 4 ppl). Whisk to combine. (NOTE: This is for your pork chops.)
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat.
- When hot, add almonds to the dry pan.
