To circumvent the rule of no meat on Good Friday, in Germany the "Maultasche" (mouth bag) was invented, also called "Herrgottsbescheißerle" in Swabian dialect (little God cheaters). The meat is minced and colored with spinach and then pasta dough is put around it, so "God and your neighbors can't see the meat inside".

It is delicous on every day!
