MeasurementsIngredients
2 (10 oz) pkg.Frozen Spinach, thawed & squeezed dry
1 CanCream of Mushroom Soup
(or) 1 CupCottage Cheese
1 SmallOnion, Chopped
1 CupShredded Cheddar Cheese
½ CupMelted Butter
1 CupSeasoned Stuffing (dry)
2-3Beaten Eggs (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a casserole dish.
  2. Thaw the spinach and squeeze it to remove as much water as possible.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the drained spinach, cream of mushroom soup (or cottage cheese), chopped onion, shredded cheddar cheese, melted butter, and dry seasoned stuffing.
  4. If using, add the beaten eggs and stir well.
  5. Pour the mixture into the greased casserole dish.
  6. Bake for 30 minutes, or until heated through and bubbly.

Note

Using the optional eggs will result in a firmer, more set casserole, similar to a quiche or strata. Without the eggs, it will be a creamier, looser side dish.
