Wash spinach and remove stems. Cook spinach in the water that clings to the leaves, until wilted. Cool and chop coarsely. Heat the oil, add the onion and saute until softened.

Drizzle more oil over the top, if desired. Cover with foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove foil and cook for 5 minutes more.
