SPINACH SOUFFLE DELUXE 
1 tbsp. butter
2 tsp. all-purpose flour
1/2 c. milk
1/4 tsp. salt
Dash of pepper
2 eggs, separated
1/2 c. cooked, chopped spinach, pressed dry
3 tbsp. Parmesan cheese, grated

Melt butter in a heavy saucepan over low heat; blend in flour, stirring until smooth. Cook 3 to 4 minutes, stirring constantly. Gradually stir in milk, and cook over low heat, stirring constantly 6 to 8 minutes, or until thickened. Stir in salt and pepper.

Beat the egg yolks. Gradually stir about one-fourth of the hot mixture into the beaten yolks, stirring well. Then stir the yolk mixture into the white sauce. Add the spinach and cheese; stir well.

Beat the egg whites (at room temperature) until stiff, and fold into the spinach mixture. Spoon into a lightly greased 1 quart souffle dish.

Bake at 325 degrees for 40 to 50 minutes, or until firm. Serve immediately.

Serves two generously.

 LA Guy (California) says:
This recipe is great for several reasons. Cheese in a souffle is great; the Parmesan gives it a little kick, and has less calories and fat than many other recipes. I found the recipe to be forgiving; I didn't mix, combine, etc. in exactly the right order, and it still turned out fine. Important thing is to whip the egg whites and fold them in last. It's lovely if you garnish the top with a few rings of sliced peppers about 15 minutes before you take it out. Yes, it does serve two generously. THIS two ate generous portions and gobbled it up at one meal!
