SPINACH COTTAGE CASSEROLE

Spinach Cottage Casserole image

I received the original recipe from a close friend's mom who makes it for every holiday dinner. I took the original and tweaked it a bit to suit my tastes by adding garlic, nutmeg, cream cheese and the variety of cheeses. By the way, the leftovers (which I can eat hot or cold) make a FANTASTIC omelet filler or pizza topping. I have had this as a side dish with duck, turkey, chicken, ham, roast beef, meat loaf and pork ribs. It seems to meld with anything and everything. For a Greek variation, add some feta cheese to the mix. This low-carb dish is also a great crock pot recipe, just mix all the ingredients together and heat on low for 8 hours.

Ingredients

3 (10 ounce) boxes frozen chopped spinach (thawed, drained and squeezed dry)
2 cups monterey jack cheese or 2 cups colby-monterey jack cheese, shredded
1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
24 ounces cottage cheese
4 ounces cream cheese, softened
2 whole eggs, beaten
1/2 cup onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 dash salt, to taste
1 dash pepper
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
3 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup parmesan cheese

Steps:

Mix the garlic and onions together in a microwaveable dish (I use a Pyrex measuring cup) and microwave for 2 minutes (until the onions are translucent).
Once the onions are cooked, thoroughly mix all the ingredients together and pack it into a casserole dish.
Dot the top with butter, sprinkle on parmesan cheese.
Bake for 1 hour at 350°F.

Tips:

To save time, use frozen spinach that has been thawed and squeezed dry.
For a creamier casserole, use half-and-half instead of milk.
Add 1/2 cup of grated Parmesan cheese to the casserole for an extra cheesy flavor.
Feel free to add other vegetables to the casserole, such as chopped broccoli, cauliflower, or zucchini.
Serve the casserole with a side of crusty bread or crackers.
