2 quarts spinach 1 tablespoon butter
1 cup grated cheese Bread crumbs
Salt
Cook the spinach in water for ten minutes. Drain off the water, add the butter, cook until tender, and chop. Add the grated cheese, and then bread crumbs enough to make a mixture sufficiently stiff to form into a roll; or leave more moist, and cook in a baking dish.
For the spinach of the above recipe there may be substituted beet tops, Swiss chard, or the outer leaves of lettuce.
Cheese may be added to cornmeal or to mush made from any of the corn or wheat preparations now on the market. The addition of cheese to cornmeal mush is particularly desirable when the mush is to be fried.
Take a breakfast roll, and cut it in half, remove some of the inside and fill with one tablespoon of Parmesan cheese, seasoned with salt, paprika, a pinch of mustard, and moistened with a teaspoon of cream. Put the halves together and pour a tablespoon of milk over the roll. Put in the oven for a few minutes until the cheese is melted and serve very hot.
