Time 1h

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 8

5 (10 ounce) packages frozen chopped spinach
½ cup butter
1 onion, chopped
2 cups milk
2 cups grated Cheddar cheese
¼ cup all-purpose flour
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
3 eggs, beaten

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease one 9x13-inch baking dish.
  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add spinach. Cover, reduce heat, and cook until heated through, 5 to 6 minutes. Drain well, squeezing out excess moisture with your hands. Set aside to cool.
  • Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat; stir in onion and cook until soft and translucent, 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Transfer onions to a double boiler; mix in milk, Cheddar cheese, flour, and ground black pepper; cook and stir until blended and smooth, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat; fold in eggs and spinach. Pour the spinach mixture into baking dish and smooth top.
  • Bake, uncovered, in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Cool briefly before cutting into squares.
