Creamed spinach stuffed tomatoes are on my menu tonight, 3weeks out, am I pushing it?

1 thick slice almost ripe Tomato

creamed spinach:

easy way -

one can of condensed mushroom Soup

1/2 or whole carton frozen chopped spinach thawed and thoroughly patted dry

tspn garlic powder

1/3 cup diced sautéd onions

1/2 cup sautéd or canned chopped mushrooms

1/3 cup parmesan grated cheese

mix all ingredients in a saucepan over medium low heat until cheese melts, allow to cool, mixture should be the texture os soft mashed potatoes. Oil a cookie sheet or casserole dish. lay tomato slices 2" apart and mound creamed spinach. sprinkle with small amount of a mixture of parmesan mixed with seasoned bread crumbs. Bake 15 to 20 min at 350 or until top begins to brown.

Hard way-

start with bachmel sauce (3tblspoon each of flour,milk,butter heated and mixed over low heat) use 2 freshly minced cloves garlic. Use fresh baby spinach, found in a bag in the salad section and it's prewashed! cook the spinach 1/2 way or more in a saucepan with 1" of wate. Pat dry.follow above recipe.

Bon Appetite.

As long as the spinach is very well cooked there is not a problem.
