WW – recipe slightly modified

Dice the onion and sauté until translucent, add the spinach, and simmer gently. Meanwhile, dice the feta cheese. Depending on the filling, either pound the turkey schnitzels lightly (stuffing like a roulade) or score them to create small, deep pockets. Add the feta cheese to the spinach and onion mixture, season with salt, pepper, and a little nutmeg, and remove from the heat, stirring occasionally. Heat some fat in a pan. Meanwhile, fill the schnitzels with the spinach and feta cheese mixture, securing with toothpicks or string if necessary. Brown the schnitzels thoroughly. If there is any leftover filling, keep it warm. Once the stuffed schnitzels are well browned, they can be served with some rice and the remaining filling (serving as a “sauce substitute”).
