A good friend of mine gave me this wonderful recipe. She told me that every time she made these for a party everyone would demand the recipe with their mouths' full! On my end, every time there's some kind of pot-luck around everyone requests that I bring this dish. Prep time does not include defrost time.

Time 45m

Yield 24 squares, 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

20 ounces frozen spinach, chopped
1 lb cheddar cheese, shredded
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup skim milk (or whichever milk you have on hand)
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup shallot, chopped (may also use diced onion)
cooking spray

Steps:

  • Defrost and drain the spinach. Thoroughly squeeze handfuls to remove the liquid. Reserve for another use if desired. The water leftover from this is great for cooking pasta or rice!
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Mix drained spinach with all remaining ingredients except cooking spray.
  • Spray a 9x2x13 baking pan with cooking spray. Bake for 30 - 40 minutes until top is nicely browned. Let cool and cut into squares.
  • My favorite way to have leftover spinach squares is to cut one up into small pieces and use it as omelet filling. Yummy!
  • Cut into 24 squares for hors d'oeuvres.

SPINACH CHEESE SQUARES



Spinach Cheese Squares image

I found this in my mother's collection of recipe clippings, from the 1960's. The only change I made was to reduce the salt to one-half teaspoon. You could probably substitute frozen chopped spinach to save time. I think these taste great at room temperature.
