I thought this was very good. I added mushrooms on part of the loaf. Didn't use the spinach. I also used some mozz but also some colby jack blend. I added extra garlic powder, maybe a little too much for the kids, but I thought it was great. Served with spaghetti sauce for dipping. Can't wait to use the frozen one!

This is a fantastic recipe. I make a 2lb. dough ball in my bread machine and divide, then make 2 loaves one with spinach and other without.

This is a hit with our freezer cooking group. My kids didn't care for the spinach, so I am leaving it out of mine, but my friend wants it to sneak in some veggies into her kids diets. I am currently making 6 of these. They freeze great and reheat easily for a fast dinner. Will be serving spaghetti sauce or marinara on the side for dipping. This is a fast and fancy meal for company dropping in for dinner.

I made this for a potluck dinner and everyone raved about it. Thanks for sharing.

Very good. My family asked if I would make this again sometime. My picky 12 year old even liked it, and he knew there was spinach inside. I baked the loaf straight instead of bending into a crescent. I think this made for more even slices. And I put seasoning on top of the loaf since other reviewers stated that they thought the bread needed more flavor; instead of brushing on egg, I rubbed the unbaked loaf with olive oil and sprinkled salt, pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and parmesan cheese on top before popping it into the oven. Wow.

This is great for parties, cut up in small pieces as a filling appetizer or a main course. I was trying to find the recipe that my Italian aunt used to make and this is extremely close. I reduced the mozzarella cheese to 3 cups and substitued the parm with romano and increased to about 3/4 of a cup but that was just to duplicate what she used to make. I'm sure the recipe is good as is too.

So good. I cooked it in a loaf pan. I used fresh spinach and minced garlic because that is what I had on hand. Also I didn't use any cheese--it still tasted great!

The first time I cooked this recipe, it was basically just to test and see if it was any good. Now, I cook it for all my family celebrations, school celebrations, and so on. It is a hit with everybody as long as I don't tell them the ingredients. Ha! Excellent recipe. I always serve it with potato soup and salad.

good but the outside of the loaf could use some dressing up

This was fantastic & easy too! It turned out perfect. I added mushrooms to the sweet turkey Italian sausage. I also reduced the amount of cheese. Yikes, 4 cups is too much so I reduced it to 2 cups. Next time, I may put the cheese on first before the meat. By putting it on last, it seems to all end up on one side of the loaf instead of being more evenly distriuted. I also added dried basil and onion powder to the list of indredients. I made my spaghetti sauce to pour over our servings. Accompany this with a hearty salad -- YUM! This will be a do-over in our house!

This was excellent! We ate it as dinner and everyone liked it. I did not use frozen bread, I used my bread machine to make a potato bread (basic white) and just used the dough cycle, let it rest for 10 min, shaped, filled, and let sit again for a second rise (30 min), brushed with egg, and baked as directed. It was delicious and easier to make than it looks! I put mine in a regular loaf pan and used sweet Italian sausage and used spaghetti sauce to "dip" it in. The kids LOVED it until I accidentally let the word "spinach" slip out!!
