Following the advice of other reviews I added 1/4t of garlic powder and 1/4t of onion powder and a dash of nutmeg. I also sauteed one jalapeno in 1 T of bacon grease, before adding the thawed spinach. I only used 4T of butter in addition to the bacon grease. I think these are delicious and will make again and again. Great snack food!

These look great, but we do not care for the taste. I would have to doctor them quite a bit into something we would really enjoy. I have a feeling this would be a fun recipe to play with, but I don't like them as written.

Saw the N*R gang giving this a try a while back and knew I wanted to try it. Anything with Spinach and Cheese in it is a must try for me! I used old cheese and added onion powder and garlic powder. Very good. Next time might just try medium cheddar and see how it is.

I added some onion powder and garlic powder to the batter as they seemed like they would be a little bland. Towards the end of baking I added a little cheese to the top of the muffin. They received mixed reviews around my house. Hubby and one son stated they reminded them of cornbread. Would probably make them again but not often.

This is what i did: I used 3/4 cup wheat flour, 3/4 cup all purpose. I chopped up bacon and cooked till crisp, drained off grease, added the chopped drained spinach to the pan, added pepper, pinch of nutmeg, and smallest pinch of crushed red peppers. drained well on papertowel. Mixed all ingredients as directed, but added garlic powder and salt. Scooped heaping tbs to greased muffin pans, and baked. They made 9 muffins. I added the bacon to balance the spinach and give the recipe more flavor as well as the wheat flour for texture. the nutmeg added wonders since it goes so well with spinach! MMMM they smelled heavenly in the oven, and looked marvelous. The only critisism i have is i didnt really like the "stringy" texture the spinich gave them, but the flavor was ok. Maybe next time i will use green onion or chives. Oh yeah, 35 mins was way too long, they were done in about 20 mins. They were a little dry too, but they were ok. Not sure if i would make again, maybe try fresh spinach. N*R

I'm sorry, but as written, these are just not to our taste. I made it just as the recipe states in order to give it a fair review, but IF I were to make them, again, I'd add a lot more seasonings, and for sure I wouldn't use frozen spinach. I doubt I'll try them, again, though. N*R

ok as written these are awful, I am thinking to much baking powder or flour. They baked up nicely but the taste was not good. I baked only two to see this way. Then I added garlic, minced onion and pepper, these are still bland... wow... I would not make these again.

These muffins remind me a lot of Red Lobster's biscuits. I took another reviewer's suggestion and added bacon. I probably won't do that again. With a little bit of garlic and onion powder, these are very good. Be sure to use Sharp Cheddar Cheese. N*R

These aren't bad. Bf liked them as is. I think that they do need a bit of spicing up, as they are bland, but other than that they were fine. My spinach wasn't stringy like others--maybe mine was more finely chopped? I made them last night and served them cold at dinner tonight. Then I heated one just to see . . . the spinach flavor is more pronounced when they are warm. I prefer them cold. N*R Go to Recipe Exchange for info on N*Rs.

Fantastic! This is a base recipe for sure! After making these I believe this is a recipe that is very versatile to your personal changes of taste! It's very bland as is, so I needed to add garlic powder, onion powder,pepper, parmesan cheese and I used old cheddar cheese. These muffins baked a nice dome for their tops and they look so pretty and taste excellent! It's a keeper. Thx. N*R

Making some revisions based on people's reviews, these are fabulous!!! For the dryness that everyone spoke of, I added two extra tablespoons of butter, extra cheese, and cooked for ten minutes less than suggested. For the blandness that was mentioned, I added 1/4 tsp of garlic salt and 1/4 tsp of onion powder and 1/4 cup of freshly grated dubliner cheese (like a sweet, bold paremsian cheese). Pair with a nice fruit salad and it would be a perfect brunch, will definately make again. Thanks for the new recipe!

These were okay. They were kind of bland. Not bad, but not great. I think maybe some garlic would perk them up? Also, the cheese caused them to stick to my muffin tin a bit. I had to use a knife and run around the edges to get the muffins to come out. I'm going to dry out the leftover muffins and use them in a dressing recipe I have that normally calls for cornbread and baking powder biscuits. N * R

I liked these, but they could use a little something else - maybe garlic or some cayenne, maybe even some shredded pepperjack cheese. Still, they were tastier than I thought. Best served relatively quickly - when they cool off was when I felt something was missing. The only change I made was to use fresh baby spinach - lightly steamed, squeezed dry and chopped - instead of frozen, as frozen spinach always seems stringy and overcooked to me. I think the fresh spinach was very flavorful in these. Thanks for sharing! N*R

I just made them last night... uhh...they were okay. I thought the flavor was good, but my muffins came out SO dry. They were like pretty little rocks :(. I might attempt this again if i combine it with another recipe.. maybe the spinach brownies on this site. I bet it will be good. Thanks for the recipe!

I liked these. My husband liked them a *lot* (he's on his 4th now - in less than an hour). Its a great idea and they are very pretty, which counts for me. I think they are a just a little bland, but could easily be spiced up with some chili flakes and/or onion. Also, make sure to use sharp cheddar! Thanks for the recipe Breezer! N*R

Unfortunately, our household didn't like these too much. Hubby and I are both indfifferent to spinach so didn't know what to expect...but they were pretty bland and the taste of the spinach did over power even the cheese (we let them cool completely as the recipe seems to suggest). I gave it two stars, one because they are REALLY pretty, and one for the benefit of the doubt (maybe it was just our tastes and not the recipe). It was an interesting N*R (not reviewed) selection to try though! N*R
