While visiting us in Park City, Utah, on a ski trip, our friend Pete gave us this tasty recipe to try, and we loved it. As the title suggests, this is one of his family's special recipes. Easy to prep, easy to cook.... you'll like this one.
Serve it with your favorite veggie, a tasty rice pilaf, and a bottle or two of Pinot Blanc.
Whenever a dish is "Florentine," you can expect it to contain spinach. This version, from a dear friend from Utah, also includes onions, mushrooms, and Parmesan cheese.
This is a great fish dish; add a few sides and have a wonderful meal.

I make this a lot. I put a layer of quinoa at the bottom because gets pretty juicy, and mix the mayo with some non fat greek yoghurt for a lighter version. It's a favorite in my house.
