Baked Cream Spinach with Provolone

March 25, 2008 at 3:38 pm 3 comments

A recipe I came up with because I needed to use up some spinach and cream I had lurking in my fridge. Baked Cream Spinach with Provolone came out very tasty! You could omit the cream ( use all milk ),and make it even more healthy but I needed to use up that cream. I hate to waste.

Baked Cream Spinach with Provolone

1 each green onion — chopped
2 cloves garlic — minced
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
cooking spray
1/2 cup heavy cream
3/4 cup skim milk
1 cup water
1 each chicken bouillon cube
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 dash nutmeg
2 ounces provolone cheese
5 cups fresh spinach — chopped
1 cup seasoned bread crumbs

Fry the green onion and garlic in cooking spray until soft. Add the flour and all liquids with the bouillon cube.

Bring liquids to a boil while stirring and cook until thick.

Add your salt, pepper, nutmeg, cheese and spinach. Stir well until cheese melts. Pllace in a casserole sprayed with cooking spray then top with the breadcrumbs. Spray the breadcrumbs well then place in a 350 degree oven about 20 minutes or until breadcrumbs are golden brown.

What Spice Are You

You Are Cilantro

The bad news is that
there are some people
who can't stand you.
The good news is that
most people love you more
than anything else in the world.
You are distinct, unusual, fresh,
and very controversial.
And you wouldn't have it
any other way.
