I would Hally as tomato & spinach go well together but if you read all the threads on the above link, you will see where farfallina's Zucchini sauce has also been used.

Dare I ... a non TMX recipe...  :):  when we have plenty of silverbet, I blanch it, add it to a mix of ricotta, feta, parsley and any other herb + seasoning, and stick this filling between 2 sheets of puff pastry:  nice with a salad.

Hally, cook silver beet in a little water and when nearly cooked add a lump of butter and a good grind of nutmeg.

Oh Faffa you dont understand,  those big green scary leaves, they look like they could engulf you up, then those bright white veins like from a horror movie and the overly large white stalks are just so  so... Repulsive......mmmm..

So grosss - but chopped they dont look so evil!

In panic that spinach might not be baby spinach!!!

Couldnt cope with being grossed out twice in a week.

I ate dinner last night really really fast and tried to get visions of those huge ugly green Leaves out of my head. ;D ;D
