Some recipes in My Mom’s Recipe Box were handwritten, while others were carefully typed and filed away for future use. This Spinach Rolls recipe is one of those typewritten cards. Rather than rewriting or modernizing it, this post preserves the original recipe and the way it was kept in my mother’s collection.

Preservation Notes
Unlike many handwritten recipes in My Mom’s Recipe Box, this recipe was typed on a typewriter. The original typewritten card has been preserved exactly as scanned, reflecting another way recipes were collected and organized before home computers became common.
