With so many of these cards, I do a little internet search as to whether or not the dish exists somewhere outside of the culinary world that is Dinner Is Served.

A quick google of “Florentine Meat Foldovers” returns with Steak Florentine, Florentine Spaghetti Bake, and Beef Wellington (!?!?)

Aside from the Wellington, I assume that what makes this Florentine is the spinach.

At least that’s what made the pork chops in card no. 15 “Florentine.”

See: spinach.

BTW, that post contains a doozy of a dating tale. Funny to think that I haven’t written a dating post for over 5 years. I sometimes miss those posts, because I think it was some of my best writing.

But just thinking about the horrifying, land-mine ridden hellscape of online dating is enough to make me want to jump off of a bridge.

But back to the meat.

I think I made this back in March. I took notes!

Let’s see if I can do this in an hour!

6:30 Cook frozen spinach as I chop garlic and onion
6:34 Meat is browning
6:35 combining the spaghetti mix and the tomato
6:40 Shred the mozz while the meat is cooking
6:45 add spinach, salt and pepper to meat
6:47 microwave the tortillas to soften them
6:50 assembly of foldovers


6:57 foldovers into oven for 30 minutes

INTERMISSION!

7:28 foldovers resting while I microwave the fiesta corn and saute some padron peppers.
7:38 photo is done. Dinner is Served!

AND! I did it in 1 hour 10! I think that if I didn’t have to go about taking pictures that I would have definitely hit the one hour mark.

With the Italian sausage and the tortillas, they were kind of an enchilada/spinach lasagna hybrid.

So, that means they weren’t bad.

  • Did you use flour tortillas? I'm wondering if the overall taste would be affected if instead you used corn tortillas that had been "fried" in oil for a minute or two. Overall, this actually looks kind of tempting, and your photos are excellent, as always!
