cook's notes
Simple enough to make with nothing more than the loaf pan. Very hard to ruin. I have also tried this with Italian sausage. I just prefer the Chorizo.
The spices are ones that have found there way into this bachelor's cupboard. Use whichever spices you feel the need to. With the Chorizo you don't really need to add any other spices, but it makes me feel more like I'm actually cooking.

It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).
