-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1 1/2 lbs fresh spinach -- stemmed and washed

1 1/2 tsp canola oil

1 leek -- thinly sliced (white part only)

2 cloves garlic -- minced

2 teaspoons lemon juice

3/4 teaspoon dried oregano

1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper

3 egg whites

 

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Coat an 8 " X 8 " no-stick baking dish with

pareve no-stick spray and set aside.

 

In a large pot, bring a small amount of water to a boil. Add the spinach, cover

and cook over medium heat for 5 minutes, or until the spinach is wilted. Squeeze

the spinach dry, chop and place in a large bowl.

 

In a small, no-stick skillet over low heat, warm the oil. Add the leeks and

garlic. Sauti for 10 minutes, or until tender but not browned. Add the leek

mixture to the bowl with the spinach. Stir in the lemon juice, oregano and

pepper.

 

In another clean large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat the egg whites until

foamy. Fold into the spinach mixture.

 

Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and bake for 35 minutes, or until set.

Remove from the oven and set aside to cool slightly. Cut into 16 squares and

serve warm.
