(I don't like spinach, so when I make it for myself only, I substitute chopped broccoli.) 4 pkg frozen, chopped spinach 4 tbsp butter 2 tbsp flour ½ cup chopped onion ½ cup evaporated milk ½ cup vegetable liquor (from spinach) ½ tsp black pepper ½ tsp garlic powder ½ tsp salt 6-oz roll Kraft Jalapeño cheese 1 tsp Worcestershire dash of cayenne 1. Cook spinach according to package directions. Drain and reserve 1/2 cup liquid. 2. Melt butter in saucepan over low heat. Add flour, stirring until blended and smooth, but not brown. Add onion and cook until soft and not brown. Add liquid slowly, stirring constantly, to avoid lumps. Cook until smooth and thick, and continue stirring. 3. Add seasonings and cheese, which has been cut into small pieces. Stir until melted. Combine with cooked spinach. This may be served immediately as is, or put into a baking dish and topped with buttered bread crumbs. Heat in 350 oven about 30 minutes, or till hot and bubbly. This can be frozen before baking. Is good...I ga-ron-teeeee! |
