This exact recipe has been around for eons, aka Spinach Madeline, and is one of my top 5 favorite foods. You can also use fresh spinach; just use a little more evaporated milk and eyeball it so it isn't too soupy. I never use bread crumbs, just because they aren't necessary.

This is SO good and easy! I follow the directions as stated but if I have a red bell pepper on hand I love to finely chop one up and add it in with the onion and pepper. It adds a nice color contrast. Also, I've tried using many types of cheese in this dish and they all seem to work great. My latest version had mozzarella and feta and it got rave reviews at Christmas dinner!

Made this twice. First time I followed the recipe as-is and really enjoyed the outcome. Second time, I substituted Gruyere cheese and added pepper flakes instead of the pepper jack cheese. It was a creamier and smoother mixture. I also substituted about a 1/4 of the spinach for mustard greens to give it a bit more of a bite. That tasted really good when it was a fresh dish but the mustard greens had lost too much of their flavor in the left-overs.

I was hoping that this recipe would be good, but unfortunately cannot give a better review. I can't pinpoint what was wrong with it, other than the overall taste was off. I made it for a family dinner, and although a couple people said they liked it, others couldn't get it down.

This was a great sidedish for Christmas dinner (roast tenderloin with bearnaise sauce, deep fried turkey.....) I used 2 big bags of fresh spinach, half & half and added a little extra jalapeno. Delish!

Loved this recipe. This was the real winner this Thanksgiving. I doubled this recipe and it worked out well. I used fresh spinach and 2% evaporated milk. I also did not have the celery salt and used regular instead. My picky husband really enjoyed this the most. I will be serving this again.
