    Title: Spinach Pie Florentine
    Categories: Greens, Cheese, Dairy, Poultry
    Yield: 4 servings

    20 oz (2 boxes) chopped spinach;
    - thawed
    2 lg Eggs; beaten
    1/3 c Butter
    1/3 c A-P flour
    1/2 ts Salt
    ds (ea) nutmeg & pepper
    1 1/2 c Milk
    3 lg Eggs; hard-cooked
    5 oz Can boned chicken
    +=OR=+
    1/3 c Chopped cooked chicken
    +=OR=+
    6 1/2 oz Can tuna in water; drained,
    - flaked
    1 c Shredded Swiss (Emmenthal)
    - cheese
    Parsley; garnish

    Drain the spinach by pressing it between your hands or
    against the bottom of a sieve with the back of a large
    spoon. Then allow it to stand on several thicknesses of
    paper toweling for 30 minutes before combining it with
    the beaten eggs, and smoothing the mixture against the
    bottom and sides of a greased 9" pie plate. With that
    done, melt the butter in a small saucepan; add flour,
    salt, nutmeg, and pepper; and stir it until it’s smooth.
    Now, gradually add the milk, stirring constantly. Cook
    the pie-to-be over medium heat, stirring slowly, until
    it comes to a boil and thickens.

    At that point, set the saucepan aside. Cut one
    hard-cooked egg into wedges and reserve three of these
    for garnish, if you want a garnish. Go on to chop the
    remaining wedges, and the other two eggs, and stir them
    into the sauce. Pour the mixture into the spinach crust,
    arrange the chicken or tuna evenly over the sauce, and
    sprinkle the entire pie with cheese. You’ll also want to
    fold a thin strip of foil around the edges of the crust
    to prevent overbrowning.

    Bake the pie in a 350ºF/175ºC oven for 20 to 30 minutes,
    removing the foil during the last 10 minutes.

    Serve it garnished with the egg wedges and a few sprigs
    of parsley. This recipe should provide a hearty main
    dish for at least four diners.
