Today is Ready, Set, Cook and if you want to find out more about this fun activity, go visit Cooking with Anne -

Last night for my husbands dining pleasure I made up and prepared Stuffed Spinach Onions w/Soup. Sounds weird huh? The ingredients given this week were:

1) Ground beef
2) Onions
3) Spinach



First saute a clove of garlic in olive oil, add some chopped onion, ground beef and cook till done.



After draining the beef, add one can of chopped diced tomatoes in tomato sauce, good beef stock, a handful of okra, basil, pepper and a little salt. The stock I use has plenty and I figure you can always add.



While the soup is cooking, cut your onions and scoop out the inside. Set aside.


Wash and drain your spinach and wring out excess water. Cut up a clove of garlic and cook in olive oil. Add spinach till hot, then add beef stock, one scrambled egg and freshly ground parmasian cheese. When the egg is cooked and the cheese melted, add bread crumbs. Stuff the onions and sprinkle some more parmisian cheese on top. Place onions in a dish with a little beef stock in the bottom and put in a fairly hot oven and cover. Bake till onions are soft, then uncover and let cheese brown.


Place the onion in a bowl of hot soup and serve.


I made fried green tomatoes and some toasted sour dough bread to go along with the meal. Quite honestly, I need not have made the tomatoes. The soup could stand alone as it was very rich. The bread is a must. It tasted so good dipped in the soup juices.



Husband Comment Section: "This is like nothing I have ever had before. It is very, very tasty..."

Maybe he will keep me.

Yeah-
