creamed spinach
(1 RATING)
This recipe is the result of a happy accident. I went to sprinkle a little flour into my oil and while I was holding the flour bag over the pan -- more than a few tablespoons fell into the oil. I proceeded on. I took my over-floured recipe to a potluck and not a single drop came home. There was a teenager that helped herself to thirds -- and has since asked for the recipe!

How To Make creamed spinach
-
Step 1Place drained spinach into 10x13 greased pan, set aside.
-
Step 2Heat up the oil, sprinkle in the flour and whisk till the flour is almost golden.
-
Step 3Pour in half & half while whisking. Adding water if you need to thin it out a bit. Remove from heat, fold in cheese.
-
Step 4Combine the cheese mixture into the spinach. Bake at 350 till bubbly and golden.
-
Step 5Instead of oil -- use bacon grease and sprinkle the crumbled bacon on top of the casserole before baking. Instead of Parmesan cheese, use Velveeta, or cheese of your choice. The recipe is actually great with no cheese at all, also! I've also added garlic to the white sauce.
