Veal and Pasta, leftovers
|
Cooking time: 10 minutes for menu Cooking schedule: see below for "menu" instructions |
Another easy mid-week dinner. Dinner from leftovers. Simply reheat the Veal with Garlic and serve it with pasta or rice. The spinach goes together quickly and bakes while the rest comes together.
Veal and Pasta Time: 15 minutes
leftover veal with garlic
1 1/4 cup pasta: penne, rigatoni
Cook pasta according to package directions. Gently reheat veal in sauce. When pasta is done, drain well. Toss with veal and sauce and serve.
Mock Spinach Soufflé Time: 40 minutes
Another recipe whose origins are lost in the mists of time. It's delicious, easy and helps me get my weekly ration of spinach. Even non-spinach lovers are happy with this. With a bit of bread and a salad it can also make a light lunch.
1 package frozen spinach - 8 - 9 oz, or the equivalent (250 gr)
2 eggs (you can substitute 3 egg whites)
1/2 cup Greek yogurt or sour cream
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
pinch of nutmeg
1 tbs olive oil
Thaw spinach (use microwave, hot water or saucepan) and squeeze out excess moisture. In medium bowl beat eggs well. Add yogurt, Parmesan and nutmeg. Mix well. Add spinach and mix well. Lightly oil a small baking dish. (I use a 7 inch square glass baking dish) Pour in spinach and bake at 400F (200C) for 30 minutes or until set. Remove and serve directly from baking dish.
