Comfort Spinach Casserole
•1/3 cup finely diced onion
•1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
•2 cups ricotta cheese
•2 10-ounce packages frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained
•1/2 cup shredded fontina cheese
•3 beaten eggs
•1/4 cup butter, softened
•3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
•1 teaspoon pepper
•2 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Heat olive oil in skillet, then add onion and saute about 5 minutes, till soft. Press thawed and drained spinach in a clean towel or paper towels, eliminating almost all moisture. In a large bowl, combine ricotta cheese, spinach, fontina cheese, eggs, butter, flour and pepper. Add sauteed onion and transfer to a greased 1.5 quart casserole. Bake, uncovered in a 350 oven for 45 minutes. Check center for doneness. It should spring back; a food thermometer (or meat thermometer) inserted in the center should read 165 degrees. Cook for an additional 5-10 minutes if necessary. Sprinkle parmesan cheese over the top and serve warm.

I'm allergic to nuts, so I used crushed pretzels instead of bread crumbs for the topping. It was just as good!

I added some chopped bacon to my casserole and it was delicious. It gave it a nice smoky flavor.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my casserole turned out watery. I think I might have added too much milk.

I'm not usually a fan of spinach, but this casserole changed my mind. It was so cheesy and delicious that I couldn't get enough of it. I'll definitely be making this again!

This spinach casserole was an absolute delight! It was creamy, cheesy, and oh-so flavorful. I loved the hint of nutmeg and the crispy breadcrumb topping. It was the perfect comfort food for a chilly night.
