"Halibut in a cheesy sauce over spinach. This is SO easy and the halibut comes out moist and flaky. Great for company because it's fancy but simple to make!"

This was a really good recipe. I lightened it up a bit. I used skim mik and 2% cheese, and I omitted the water (since the skim milk is thin to begin with) and added salt and pepper to the milk mixture. I also used talapia and fresh spinach. I sauteed the spinach first a bit, but I don't think I will bother next time. It came out great! Thanks!

I made this recipe for my family and it was DE-lish. I used fresh spinach instead of frozen, only because that's what I had on hand. It turned out great. I will definitely make this again. Also, it was very easy to make. The family really enjoyed it!

Excellent. I've never made cheese sauce this way before but it turns out OK and is much quicker than the roux method.

Great recipe. I used halibut fillets instead of steaks and fresh spinach as is. This would work well with cheaper fish also. I had twice as much cheese sauce than was required so saved till the next day for Tuna Mornay. I will never make cheese sauce any other way - I'm so grateful to have learned this method. I cut the cooking time by at least half.

This was very easy and turned out pretty good. The only variation I made was using soymilk. I will make this again.

This recipe was super easy and it tasted really good. I flavored the halibut with garlic and a dash of fish seasoning. The only thing I found odd about this recipe was the flour and water. The ratio is really close and was a little too thick; so I tossed that and made a flour/cornstarch mix like you do for gravy and whisked it in and it seemed better. I also agree that using fresh spinach turned out nicely. But really delicious and all in all a great dish.

I made this for my family tonight and they really didn't enjoy it. I think the cheese to spinach/fish ratio was too much, it would have probably been better if I had used the sauce sparingly since it was really rich.

This is a recipe that is a definite remake! It was exceptionally good and the combination of the spinach and fish is very pleasing.
