 Amount  Measure Ingredient      Preparation Method
 2       large   sweet onions    such as vidalia
                 olive oil
 2       pounds  fresh spinach   OR
                 mixed bitter greens     such as swiss chard
 3/4     pound   feta cheese     preferably greek
 12       ounces elbow macaroni  white or whole wheat
                 boiling water
 
 Chop the onion coarsely; set aside.  Pick over the greens, wash and
 tear into large pieces; set aside in a colander.  Dice feta cheese.
 Bring a large pot of water to boil for the macaroni.
 
 Begin to cook the macaroni; do not drain.  In a dutch oven, heat olive
 oil; add chopped onions and saute until soft.  Do not brown.  Add
 greens and cover pot;  cook for several minutes, stirring once or
 twice, until spinach is cooked down.   Add feta cubes and cook,
 stirring constantly, until feta is completely melted.   As soon as
 macaroni is al dente, lift pasta with a strainer or large slotted
 spoon directly from the pasta water into the spinach and feta mixture.
 Stir to combine well; the spinach has a tendency to clump.

 Here is another spinach recipe.  We've never tried this one, but what
 could be bad?  We *love* pesto.
