SPINACH POTATOES
This potato dish is considered a special treat even by my grandchildren and great-grandchildren. It came to me from a dear friend who was raised on a farm in Kansas, and it's one of my personal favorites. The creamy spuds, spinach and melted cheese provide down-home flavor that can't be beat. It's a great side to bring to a potluck.

Tips:
- For the creamiest results, use full-fat milk and cream. If you're looking for a lighter version, you can use low-fat or non-fat milk and cream, but the sauce won't be as thick and rich.
- To make sure the potatoes are cooked through, poke them with a fork or knife. They should be tender all the way through.
- If you don't have fresh spinach, you can use frozen spinach. Just thaw it out and squeeze out any excess water before using it.
- Bocconcini cheese is a soft, fresh cheese that is similar to mozzarella. If you can't find bocconcini, you can use mozzarella or another type of soft cheese.
- Serve the potato and spinach bocconcini immediately, while it's still hot and bubbly.
