Spinach Casserole
5 Apr 2017 06:20 pm The tradition around here for New Year's Day lunch is to have greens (for money in the new year) and black eyed peas (for luck). This is my greens recipe for my roommate and myself.
As a note, this is one of those recipes where I do a lot of the directing and I let my roommate do the actual preparation work. I love eating spinach, but I get physically ill whenever I try to squeeze the water out of it. Just thinking about it makes me shudder.
Ingredients:
Set stove for 350°. Allow to preheat.
Drain spinach well. This will involve having to squeeze the excess liquid from it. Transfer to 1 quart casserole dish.
Add cream cheese, butter, onion powder, and half of Parmesan cheese to spinach. Mix well. Add milk as needed.
Sprinkle with remaining Parmesan and cook in oven at 350° for 20 minutes. If you are using the bread crumbs, add them after 5 minutes.
