Notes: Miriam didn't make this when Linda, Richard and I were growing up. She started making this after she moved to Montreal. We suspect that this was a favorite of the Bloom Brothers so she started making it then. I love to make this with a side dish of farfel as the mixture of farfel with the spinach hamburger sauce is really good!
