In saucepan, cook potatoes in boiling water to cover 10-15 minutes or just until tender.
Meanwhile, in steamer basket over boiling water, steam spinach 3-5 minutes until tender (or microwave with 1 tablespoon water in covered shallow dish 1 to 1 1/2 minutes).

Spoon mixture into potatoes, mounding on top. Serve as is, or cover and chill to serve later, or heat in lightly greased baking dish, covered, at 375 degrees for 20 minutes or until hot.

Garnish with basil leaves and lemon slices, if desired. Makes 20-24 appetizers.
