Steps:
- Grease a 9-by-13-inch (3-quart) casserole dish with oil.
- Toss the bread cubes with 2 tablespoons of the oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the bread to the skillet, and cook, tossing occasionally, until toasted and golden brown, about 8 minutes. Return the toasted bread to the bowl to cool.
- Wipe out the skillet. Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons oil over medium-high heat until it starts to shimmer. Add the mushrooms in one layer (resist the urge to stir right away), and cook until they start to brown, about 3 minutes; stir, then continue to brown for 2 minutes more. Add the garlic, thyme, 1/4 teaspoon salt and some pepper, stir continuously for 1 minute, then fold in the spinach and another 1/4 teaspoon salt. Continue to cook, stirring often, until the spinach is wilted, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from the heat.
- Place half the bread cubes in the prepared casserole dish, and sprinkle them with half each of the Gruyere and Parmesan. Add the mushroom-spinach mixture in an even layer. Top with the remaining bread cubes, Gruyere and Parmesan.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, half-and-half, 1/2 teaspoon salt and several grinds of pepper. Pour the egg mixture into the casserole dish. Cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 6 hours up to overnight. Remove the casserole from the refrigerator 30 minutes before baking.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Bake the casserole until the custard is set and the top is golden brown, 50 to 55 minutes. Cool for at least 15 minutes before serving warm or at room temperature.

If you don't use a compound butter do add a couple cloves of minced garlic when sauteing the onions.

Steps:
- 1. Add spinach to pan with small amount of water and bring to quick boil. Drain well (I squeeze the water out through a colander).
- 2. Melt one stick butter in large skillet, add sliced mushrooms, and sprinkle with garlic powder and salt (to taste). Add mushroom mixture to drained spinach, along with chopped-up block of cream cheese. Mix lightly. Pour into casserole dish.
- 3. Melt the other stick of butter in the same skillet, and add chopped bread cubes. Stir constantly over high heat until nicely toasted. Sprinkle over spinach mixture.
- 4. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes, until bubbly. (It doesn't take long because everything is already warm). Yum Yum eat em up!
Tips:
- Use fresh spinach: Fresh spinach provides a more vibrant flavor and texture compared to frozen or canned spinach.
- Squeeze out excess moisture from the spinach: This helps prevent the casserole from becoming watery.
- Sauté the mushrooms and onions before adding them to the casserole: This enhances their flavor and prevents them from releasing excess moisture.
- Use a variety of cheeses: A combination of cheeses, such as mozzarella, cheddar, and Parmesan, adds depth of flavor and richness to the casserole.
- Season the casserole well: Use a combination of herbs, spices, and salt and pepper to taste.
- Bake the casserole until golden brown and bubbly: This ensures that the casserole is cooked through and the cheese is melted and gooey.
Conclusion:
Spinach mushroom casserole is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It's a great way to use up leftover spinach and mushrooms, and it's also a good source of protein, fiber, and vitamins. With its creamy, cheesy sauce and flavorful combination of spinach and mushrooms, this casserole is sure to be a hit with everyone at the table.
