Cheesy Spinach Bake image

This dish appeals to all ages. The slices hold their shape and taste great at room temperature -- making them perfect for make-ahead dinners, lunch boxes or potlucks. When sliced in small squares, they make great finger food, too. Created for RSC#11, and definitely a dish I'll make often in the future.

Time 50m

Yield 9-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

5 large eggs
1/2 cup sour cream
1/4-1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 cup milk
1/4 cup butter, melted and cooled
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
2 cups Baby Spinach, tightly packed and roughly chopped (about 4 ounces)
2 large shallots, peeled and finely chopped (heaped 1/2 cup)
1 1/2 cups gouda cheese, grated
2 -4 tablespoons asiago cheese, grated
1/4 cup artichoke heart, finely diced (no woody bits)
1 cup lean bacon, diced

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350°F.
  • In a medium-sized bowl, beat eggs lightly, then beat in sour cream and black pepper. Stir in milk and butter, and set aside.
  • In a small bowl, sift together flour and baking powder. Stir several times and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, combine, in order, the spinach, shallots, cheeses, artichoke hearts and bacon. Stir well after each addition.
  • Add flour mixture and stir well.
  • Add egg mixture and stir well.
  • Pour into a greased 11x7 pan (I used a glass one). Note: a 10-inch pie pan also works.
  • Bake in the pre-heated oven for 30-40 minutes, until golden on top.
  • Let rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing.
  • Can be served warm but is best at room temperature.

This dish is a great way to use up leftover spinach. I always have a bag of spinach in my fridge, so this recipe is a lifesaver.
