POTATO, SPINACH, & MUSHROOM CASSEROLE
This recipe is from the "Cooking with Friends" recipe book. "Friends" is my favorite TV show, and this is definitely one of my favorite recipes. I tend to make this when entertaining & am always proud of how it turns out. I always get wonderful reviews & many requests for this recipe. It is listed in the recipe book under Vegetarian Delights. I have found that it also makes an excellent side dish to accompany beef, chicken or fish. This dish has an incredible flavor & goes nicely with a glass of wine.

TRANSFORMED SPINACH MUSHROOM QUICHE
This moist vegetarian quiche is perfect for every meal. The quiche was originally a quiche Lorraine, but has since been transformed. Feel free to add sausage if you choose. I usually make 2 large pies or several small ones all at one time, freezing whatever is left over.
