A family favorite, you may increase the cheese amounts if desired I also add in cayenne pepper to the creamed mixture.

2 cups light cream
2 (10 ounce) packages frozen spinach, thawed and squeezed dry

This casserole was a bit too rich for my taste. I think I would use less cheese next time.

This casserole was a great way to use up leftover spinach. It was also a hit with my kids, who are usually picky eaters.

Not a fan of spinach, but this casserole was surprisingly good. The cheese and breadcrumb topping were especially tasty.

This casserole was a little bland for my taste. I think I would add some more spices next time.

Easy to make and very tasty. I added a little bit of garlic powder and onion powder to give it a little extra flavor.

I've made this casserole several times and it's always a crowd-pleaser. It's cheesy, creamy, and has just the right amount of spinach. I highly recommend it!
