Creamed Spinach Casserole image

THIS RECIPE comes from an old cookbook I received as a wedding gift in 1945. As they grew up, my children loved all vegetables, but they often requested spinach served this way. Through the years, it has remained a family favorite. -Jane Everett Pinehurst, North Carolina
