Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking dish.
In a skillet over medium heat, sauté minced garlic in olive oil for about 1 minute. Add fresh spinach and cook until wilted, about 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
In a bowl, whisk together heavy cream and half of the grated Parmesan cheese.
