Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more, softened, for brushing
1 onion, chopped (2 cups)
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 pound curly-leaf spinach, thick stems removed, sliced (8 packed cups)
2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves
1 pound Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and cut into a 1/2-inch dice (3 cups)
1 1/2 cups whole milk
12 large eggs
Scant 1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
6 ounces fontina, coarsely grated (2 cups)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375°F. Brush a 2-quart baking dish with butter. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and 1/2 teaspoon salt; cook, stirring occasionally, until golden in places, 5 to 7 minutes. Add spinach and thyme; cook until spinach wilts and darkens slightly, about 5 minutes. Add potatoes and milk; season with pepper.
  • Simmer until milk thickens and reduces slightly and potatoes are easily pierced with the tip of a knife but still retain their shape, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat; let cool completely. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk eggs with 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and nutmeg. Stir cooled potato mixture and half of cheese into eggs.
  • Transfer to prepared baking dish and cover with parchment-lined foil. (If assembling the day before, wrap the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to bake). Bake casserole, covered, 30 minutes. Uncover, sprinkle evenly with remaining half of cheese, and continue baking until set and golden brown in places, 15 to 25 minutes more (if the top is browning too quickly, tent with foil). Let cool slightly before serving.

MASHED POTATO SPINACH CASSEROLE



Mashed Potato Spinach Casserole image

This is one of my old stand-by recipes from the More with Less Cookbook. It's a good one for those nights when I don't really feel like cooking. I suppose this is meant to be a side dish, but I always up the amounts a bit and serve it as a meatless main dish. The original recipe calls for the addition of dill seed and chives, but I never use them for our family.

Provided by pattikay in L.A.

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 40m

4 large potatoes
1/3-1/2 cup sour cream
1 teaspoon salt

2 -4 tablespoons butter (optional)
milk
1 cup cooked frozen spinach, well drained and chopped (I just use frozen, thawed and pressed dry)
1/2-1 cup grated cheddar cheese
1/2 teaspoon dill seed (optional)
2 teaspoons chives (optional)

Steps:

  • Peel, cook and mash potatoes.
  • Add sour cream, salt, pepper (and butter if desired).
  • Mix in enough milk to bring it to your favorite mashed potato consistency.
  • Add spinach (and seasonings if desired).
  • Place in casserole dish and top with grated cheddar cheese. (sometimes I also mix a bit of the cheese in with the potatoes before topping).
  • Bake in 350 oven for 20-30 minutes.
  • We like to serve this with corn, which usually ends up mixed in with all the rest.

POTATO, SPINACH, RICOTTA CASSEROLE



POTATO, SPINACH, RICOTTA CASSEROLE image

Number Of Ingredients 12

Pancetta, Ricotta, Potatoes, thin sliced, 1 small onion thin sliced, 1 teaspoon garlic (optional), Gruyere, 1 box of frozen spinach, Chicken broth, 1 teaspoon dijon mustard
s/p to taste, Fresh rosemary 1 teaspoon minced
7 medium potatoes thin sliced, I keep skins on if you want. I peel them
1 large onion thin sliced
1 teaspoon minced garlic
3/4 lb bacon or pancetta (I prefer pancetta) chopped or diced
1 1/2 cups ricotta cheese
2 cups grated gruyere or gouda (gouda gives a smokiness, gruyere a nutty flavor)
1 box of frozen spinach drained and chopped
1 cup milk, I like 3/4 cream 1/4 cup milk
1 1/2 cups chicken stock
3 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary

Steps:

  • I like to pan saute the pancetta, onion and garlic in a large saute pan. Cook until semi soft and add the potatoes. I a bowl mix the ricotta, rosemary, pepper and salt, spinach, and 1/2 the cheese. Mix well. In a 13x9 baking dish sprayed with pam or greased add 1/2 the potato mix, then 1/2 the cheese mix. Repeate. Mix the milk and broth and pour over the casserole. Top with the remaining cheese. Cover and bake 45 minutes on 375 and then remove foil and bake another 10 minutes until the cheese melts and gets bubbly and brown. NOTE: One time I had to add a little extra broth, the other time it was fine. Just check half way through. The variety of the potato and size of that as well as the onion does make a slight difference. I just ended up added another 3/4 cup broth and it was perfect. No eggs but the cheese and the potatoes give it a natural thickness. Enjoy I always love it! I stuff portabellos with zuchinni, tomato, eggplant, onions, summer squash, and anything else, some bread crumbs, cheese to make it a great simple stuffed pepper. You can use just a simple parm with some wonderful fresh tomatoes. Even corn, scallions. Any of your favorites will work, grill or bake. It goes great with the potatoes. Roasted tomatoes is a favorite with this as well. I cut thick and sprinkle with oregano, s/p and balsamic marinate 15 minutes and roast. A great side with the potatoes
