Spinach Souffles

I made these a while ago after Henry made the chocolate souffles.  I came across the pictures recently and they deceivingly look pretty good.  I don’t remember the recipe for these and it doesn’t matter because I would never follow it again.  I actually did not like these at all.  They did not turn out tasting like I wanted them…

Here they are without the shell!  I loved the patterns they made. All hollowed out. All the yolks. We mixed in mayonaise, mustard, salt and pepper. Henry made his own piping bag with a…
