                    Here's a nutricious, quick side dish. Makes a good leftover sandwich filler the next day also. Ingredients: 
                    
                        
                                                1 (16 ounce) bag frozen spinach, thawed  |  
                                                1 1/2 cups cooked white rice  |  
                                                2 tablespoons flour  |  
                                                3 egg whites  |  
                                                2 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese  |  
                                                salt and pepper  |  
                                                
                     
                    Directions: 
                    
                        
                            
                                1. Squeeze water from spinach and place in bowl with balance of ingredients. Mix well and form into small patties. Spray patties on both sides with cooking spray and place in a non stick lightly greased skillet. Cook patties a few minutes on each side and serve. 2. You can add optional ingredients such as red pepper flakes, minced onion or a little garlic powder to mixture before you form patties.                              |
