3 tablespoons butter
3 cloves of garlic, minced
1 medium onion, chopped
Pinch of nutmeg (optional)
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 ¼ cups heavy cream
2 9oz packages frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained
Salt and pepper to taste
⅔ cup shredded parmesan cheese, divided
3oz cream cheese
2 tablespoons breadcrumbs

Steps:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F and grease a 2-quart baking dish.
In a medium size saucepan, heat butter over medium high heat. Once butter is fully melted, add the minced garlic and chopped onion. Cook while occasionally stirring until onions have softened, approximately 5 minutes.
Add the nutmeg, cayenne pepper, and heavy cream to the saucepan and simmer until the mixture has thickened, approximately 5 minutes.
Mix in spinach, salt and pepper to taste, and ⅓ of the parmesan cheese, and cream cheese. Stir until combined.
Pour mixture into the prepared baking dish and sprinkle the breadcrumbs and remaining ⅓ of parmesan cheese over the top.
Bake 15-17 minutes until top is golden brown and cheese is bubbling.
