Tomatoes Florentine
Published September/October 2001

Tomatos Florentine (NAPSA)-Easy does it! That's the philosophy behind the successful cookbook series known as The Best of Bridge.

The idea behind these cookbooks is to create simple recipes that produce gourmet results.

The series began in 1975 when eight close-knit friends and bridge partners decided to self-publish a cookbook to raise money for a trip. The authors have since published eight books. They aren't chefs, home economists or trained food professionals-but they all know what it's like to be short on time and still want to set a delicious meal on the table.

The recipe for this series' success is that reading these cookbooks is like looking into a friend's recipe box. The ingredients are easy to find and the recipes have been kitchen-tested. Refreshing humor is found throughout each book.

The latest title in this series is Winners: More Recipes From The Best of Bridge. As a timely, one-line joke in the book states, "If a woman's place is in the home; she should go there directly after work." When she (or he) gets there, she may want to prepare this delicious recipe, which can make a wonderful light meal with bread or a mouthwatering accompaniment to marinated lamb and scalloped potatoes.

Tomatoes Florentine

  • 6 fairly firm tomatoes (not a chorus line)!
  • 1 12 oz. (360 g) package frozen chopped spinach
  • 1 tbsp. (15 ml) instant minced onion
