Spanish Tortilla with Spinach

spanish tortilla with spinach

Ahh, Sunday. In my head, Sundays are days for lounging around, eating lazily and often, and puttering around the house putting things in their proper places.

  • A cheap and cheerful shakshuka for dinner tonight, with chickpeas swirled in a smoky paprika tomato sauce with wilted spinach and feta, topped with a sprinkling of cilantro (coriander).

My neighbors have benefited from my baking largesse; my waistline thanks them for indulging me!
