SPINACH AND FETA MEATLOAF RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350° F. Mix all ingredients, except spinach and cheese, in a large bowl. Stem and cook the spinach (or thaw, if frozen) and squeeze dry, and chop finely. Cover a rimmed baking sheet with a piece of waxed paper. On the waxed paper, shape the meat mixture into a neat rectangle about 9 inches by 13 inches, keeping the thickness as even as possible. Spread the chopped spinach over the meat. crumble the cheese and distribute over the spinach.. Starting from a short side, use the waxed paper to help roll up the meat, jelly-roll fashion, into a log. With moistened fingers, press and pat the ends shut and seal up any cracks that develop. Slide the waxed paper away from the meat log and bake in preheated oven about 45 minutes, or to 160° at the center. Remove from oven and let stand a few minutes to firm up, then cut into thick slices and serve. Serves 2, makes leftovers!

HEARTY SPINACH AND FETA CHEESE BREAD

Steps:

• Warm 1/4 cup of the reserved spinach liquid to just above 100F (105 to 115, ideally).
• Stir the yeast and sugar into the warm spinach liquid, let stand until foamy, 10 minutes.
• Add remaining 1/2 cup spinach liquid, feta cheese, oil, spinach, and nutmeg and stir thoroughly.
• Mix the flour and salt and stir into the spinach mixture.
• Knead on a floured surface or in a Mixmaster until dough is well marbled, 8 to 10 minutes. Add more flour, if the dough is sticky, but it is okay if it is slightly moist. Place the dough in an oiled bowl, cover tightly with plastic wrap, and let rise until doubled, 1-1/4 to 1-1/2 hours.
• The dough may be even wetter after rising because of the spinach. Pour the dough onto a well-floured work surface and flour the top of the dough if necessary. Shape into a loaf and place on a lightly oiled bread pan. Cover with a towel and let rise until doubled, about 45 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 425°F Bake for 10 minutes, then reduce the heat to 400F and bake the loaf 30 to 35 minutes.
• Cool completely on a rack.
