Mix in the spinach, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 cup of the Parmesan. Add the cream cheese and stir until melted. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

ANYTIME SPINACH CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Thaw spinach in microwave or on stove top.
• In a bowl beat 6 eggs and add milk (optional). Mix in 1 cup of your favorite cheese, we like co jack, mozzarella or a blend of the two.
• Next place thawed and drained spinach in casserole dish and pour egg/cheese mixture over the top. Do a light stir and then sprinkle crushed crackers and top with pats of butter and a light layer of cheese.
• Place in 350°F oven until casserole is firm in the center. About 35-45 minutes depending on oven. Casserole will settle upon cooling.
• Flavor with salt and pepper, a dash of cayenne pepper or hot sauce. I have not tried variations of this dish because we like it as is but I think using pepper jack cheese or jack cheese with chilies would taste great. Yum!
