Stuffed shells! But you would need more ingredients ricotta, parmesan, maybe mozzerella, tomato sauce, and either jumbo shells or you could do "Un - stuffed shells" with any kind of pasta yum! Now I'm hungry!

I used to make something similar to this (ground beef/spinach burritos) in college and they were SO good!

I make spaghetti with spinach. After I brown ground beef I drain the fat. Then, I chop up about 9 oz of fresh spinach leaves and sautee it in the same pan as the beef. Add back the beef and stir in four cheese store-bought sauce.

ETA: don't make this because he can't eat sauce.

Not sure if you have any of these other ingredients on hand, but this is a big favorite in our house. I substitute fresh spinach for the frozen all the time.

I would just make some sort of ground beef bowl! Saute the ground beef with some chopped onions and seasonings of choice, then separately sauté spinach/garlic, then top it with an over easy egg!

*If you have other things on hand, you can just sauté those too - sliced squash, carrots, mushrooms, etc. and just throw it all together.

Kind of like a bibimbap like Mrs. Wagon said!

@mrs. wagon: I think I'll make this tonight!

We do Greek pitas. Brown the beef, sautee one red onion, add a can of sliced black olives, feta cheese, and the spinach just to wilt. I normally add a can of tomatoes, but there's no reason you can't leave it out. Yogurt sauce with 2 parts plain yogurt to 1 part mayo (sounds gross, but delicious and gives right texture) mixed with Lawry's lemon pepper seasoning to taste. Line half a pita with some romaine lettuce, add filling and top with sauce.

Spinach rice! I make it with tomato paste but you could leave that out.

1) Brown the ground beef in a large skillet.

2) Add a diced onion and cook until the onion is soft and translucent. Close to the end of this process, toss in a minced garlic clove or two.

3) Add a cup of rice, two cups of water, a dollop of tomato paste (optional, or I'm sure red pepper pesto would work well in place of it), salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, then turn down the heat and cover.

4) When the rice is almost done but still a bit crunchy, add the spinach and let it wilt on top of the rice for a few minutes. When it's soft, stir the whole thing up to disperse it through the rice.

5) When the rice is fully cooked, eat and enjoy!
