Stuffed Onions Florentine

Instructions

1. 1

   Peel the onions and cut off the tops about one-fourth the way down. Scoop out centers of onions, leaving quarter-inch-thick onion shells. Chop onion centers.

2. 2

   In a skillet, cook bacon until crisp. Remove and crumble. Pour off fat, but don't wipe the pan. Cook chopped onion in remaining fat until tender.

3. 3

   Lower the heat to medium-low and stir in all the other ingredients and the bacon. Cook until all the moisture has been absorbed and the mixture is beginning to dry.

4. 4

   Fill onion shells loosely with spinach mixture. Blend the topping ingredients and sprinkle generously on top of the onions.

5. 5

   Arrange the stuffed onions in muffin tin. Cover with foil. Bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes, then remove foil and bake until the topping browns.
