A traditional pasta filling with feta and farmer cheese. Great the way it is or treat it as a good basic recipe to take off on, adding what appeals to you. Tell me what you try.

SERVES 4 , 4 servings stuffed pasta (change servings and units)

Ingredients

2 onions, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
2 tablespoons butter
10 ounces fresh spinach, torn into small pieces
4 ounces feta cheese, crumbled
4 ounces farmer cheese, crumbled
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground nutmeg
salt & freshly ground black pepper
2 eggs
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

Directions

1
Melt the butter in a saucepan and saute the onion and garlic until golden; steam spinach until well wilted; remove from heat, cool enough to handle, and squeeze dry.
2
Combine onion mixture and spinach; stir in cheeses and beat in seasonings, eggs and parsley; refrigerate until ready to stuff pasta.

Great easy filling and its nice to see one using fresh produce. Makes quite a bit too. I've made enough for cannelloni for 4 and I could probably stuff enough for the freezer for a few 1-2 person meals.

We love lesagne but were ready for a change so we decided to have canneloni this week. This was an easy and delicious recipe, just what the Dr. ordered.

Really teriffic filling! I used on Canneloni and the quantity was perfect for 12 shells. The only change I made was to use cottage cheese rather than feta.
