FLORENTINE MEATLOAF
From A Taste of Italy (1996) by The American Cooking Guild: "When 14-year-old Catherine de Medici left Florence to marry King Henry II of France, her entourage of chefs encountered spinach for the first time. From then on, they referred to dishes with spinach as florentine, which means 'bed of spinach' in French. This moist spinach and beef loaf tastes even better topped with marinara sauce."
