    Haven’t tried it yet but am wondering if Sausage is supposed to read Spinach? Sounds yummy either way…

      Hi Mauri,
      Thank you for your comment and a sharp eye. Yes, it should be “spinach” instead of “sausage”, however, Italian turkey sausage or something similar might add an extra layer of flavor.
