SPINACH, SARDINE AND RICE GRATIN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Oil a 1 1/2 to 2-quart gratin or baking dish. Remove the sardines from the oil and separate them into fillets. Set the oil aside.
• Wilt the spinach either by steaming or blanching. To blanch bring a large pot of water to a boil, salt generously and add the spinach. Blanch for no more than 20 seconds (do this in batches). Transfer to a bowl of cold water, drain and squeeze out excess water. If you prefer, you can wilt the spinach by steaming for about 1 minute over an inch of boiling water. Chop medium-fine.
• Heat the olive oil (not the oil from the sardines) in the skillet over medium heat and add the onion and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring, until tender, 5 to 8 minutes. Add a generous pinch of salt, stir in the garlic and thyme and cook, stirring, until fragrant, 30 seconds to a minute, then add the chopped wilted spinach, flour, and salt and pepper to taste. Stir together for 1 minute, until everything is blended. Add the milk and cooked rice and stir together for about 1 minute, until you no longer see liquid in the pan. Remove from the heat. Taste and adjust salt and pepper.
• Spread half the rice and spinach in the bottom of the baking dish. Top with the sardine fillets in one layer. Drizzle a tablespoon of the oil from the cans over the sardines, then top with the remaining rice and spinach in an even layer. Sprinkle on the breadcrumbs and drizzle on another tablespoon of the oil from the sardine cans. Place in the oven and bake 15 minutes, until sizzling. Serve hot or warm.

• Place spinach in a large soup pot and cover. Heat on low until spinach begins to wilt, about 4 minutes. Turn heat off and add half-and-half, 1 cup Swiss cheese, and the onion mixture. Stir to combine and transfer to a 9-inch gratin dish.
• Combine breadcrumbs and remaining 1/2 cup cheese in a bowl. Pour melted butter over the top and stir to combine. Evenly spread breadcrumb mixture over the spinach.
• Bake in the preheated oven uncovered for 20 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes before serving.

SPINACH RICE GRATIN RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F
• Place rack in the top third of oven. Grease a 10 inch round baking dish with a bit of olive oil.
• In a large bowl combine the rice, spinach and tofu.
• Now, reserving a bit of each for garnish, stir in the olives, red onion,pine nuts and olive oil.
• Stir in 1/4 cup of the cheese.
• In a small bowl whisk the eggs and salt.
• Fold the eggs into the rice mixture.
• Pour into the prepared baking dish, and sprinkle with remaining cheese.
• Bake for 30 minutes or until the casserole is set and the top is toasty and golden.
• Remove from the oven and sprinkle with reserve onions, olives and nuts. Sprinkle with a bit more cheese.

PROVENCAL SPINACH GRATIN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Oil a 2-quart baking dish or gratin and rub with a cut side of one of the garlic cloves before you chop the garlic.
• Steam the spinach above an inch of boiling water for 2 to 3 minutes, until it is wilted. You will probably have to do this in batches. I like to use a pasta pot with an insert for steaming spinach, as I can get a lot of it into the insert. Rinse briefly with cold water, squeeze gently (you don't have to squeeze dry) and chop.
• In a large bowl, toss together the spinach, 2 tablespoons of the olive oil, garlic, salt and pepper, flour, milk and parsley. Spoon into the gratin dish in an even layer. Sprinkle the bread crumbs over the top and drizzle on the remaining tablespoon of olive oil.
• Place in the oven and bake for 20 to 30 minutes, until the top is browned and the mixture is sizzling. Serve as a starter or a side.

WILD RICE GRATIN

Steps:

• Beat the eggs well and season with salt and pepper. Stir in rice, cheese and parsley.
• Lightly saute the green onions, using both green and white parts, in a large skillet that has been sprayed with cooking spray.
• If using fresh spinach tear or coarsely chop the spinach leaves and stir them to the pan of green onions and toss just until a little wilted. Frozen spinach would only require a good squeeze to remove all the liquid- I use a ricer for this and it works great!
• Add the onions and spinach to the rice mixture and taste for seasoning, adding salt and pepper if needed.
• Spoon into an 8x8 or 9x9 pan that has been sprayed with cooking spray and sprinkle with bread crumbs if desired.
• Bake uncovered at 350 degrees for 30-35 minutes or until a little brown on top.
• Enjoy!
