Midwestern Spinach & Cheese Savoury Bread Pudding image

I got this recipe yesterday from a recipe group and made it last night. The original recipe called for Jack cheese (and only half the amount), low fat milk, no garlic or onion or Parmesan and used white bread. I played with it and this is what I came up with. It turned out quite nicely as a side dish to Lamb chops but I imagine it would also make a lovely vegetarian main dish served with a salad on the side.

This recipe was way too cheesy for my taste. I think I'll try it again with less cheese next time.

I followed the recipe exactly and the bread pudding turned out too mushy. I think I overcooked it.

I found this recipe to be a bit dry. I added some extra milk and it was much better.

This recipe was a bit too bland for my taste. I added some extra salt and pepper and it was much better.

I'm not a big fan of spinach, but I really enjoyed this bread pudding. The cheese and bread flavors really balanced out the spinach.
