  4. In a large baking dish place a single layer of cutlets across the bottom. Cover the layer of cutlets with the spinach mixture. Top the mixture with another layer of cutlets.
  5. Preheat Oven 350 degrees.

For the Topping:

  1. Combine the lemon juice, parsley, salt, pepper and olive oil and drizzle over the top of the cutlets.
