Dinner at Home
Individual Meat Loaf and Creamed Spinach
I didn't want to make a large meat loaf, or a whole bunch of meat balls, so I opted for "meatloaf muffins", made in a muffin tin. I'm not going to give the recipe for these meatloaf muffins because I think I added either too much flax seed or too much cheese--the texture was a bit slimy.
Creamed Spinach
-1 lbs spinach, blanched
-1 cup heavy cream
-1 ts nutmeg
-1 lbs spinach, blanched
-1 cup heavy cream
-1 ts nutmeg
-5 slices bacon, cut into lardons
-8 cloves garlic, minced
-salt and pepper to taste
-1/4 cup parmasean
Squeeze as much water as possible out of the blanched spinach and roughly chop. Set aside. In a large frying pan begin to render the lardons. Then the bacon is about 1/2 cooked add the onions and garlic and sautee then in the bacon fat until the bacon is cooked and the onions and garlic are brown. Drain the excess fat and return to the heat. Add the chopped spinach, cream, nutmeg, salt and pepper. Stir continuously over medium-low heat until thick and creamy. Add the parmasean, stir to incorporate and serve.
