Best Trisha Yearwoods Spinach Casserole Recipes

SAUSAGE VEGGIE BREAKFAST CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Heat a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the oil to heat, then add the sausage and cook until browned and crispy, breaking up any big clumps with the back of a wooden spoon, 5 to 6 minutes. Remove the sausage to a large bowl, leaving behind any rendered fat. Add the mushrooms and leeks to the skillet with the fat and cook until they are softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the garlic and red bell peppers. Sprinkle in the paprika, mustard, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and cook for 5 to 8 minutes more. Add the mushroom mixture to the bowl with the sausage. Stir together and taste for seasoning.
• In a blender, add the spinach, eggs, hot sauce, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Blend until smooth. Stir the spinach mixture and Gruyere into the sausage mixture a little at a time.
• Spray four 5-ounce ramekins with nonstick cooking spray. Pour the mixture into the ramekins. Bake until the casseroles are entirely set, 35 to 50 minutes. Let the casseroles cool slightly before eating. Serve warm or at room temperature.

CHICKEN SPINACH LASAGNA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a large bowl, combine the spinach, chicken, Cheddar, onion, cornstarch, salt, pepper, soy sauce, soup, sour cream, mushrooms and mayonnaise. Put a layer of noodles in the bottom of a greased 9-by-13-by-2-inch casserole dish. Spread half of the spinach mixture over the noodles. Put another layer of noodles over the mixture and cover with the remaining spinach mixture. Sprinkle the Parmesan over the casserole. Then sprinkle the pecans on top. Bake for 1 hour. Let the casserole sit for 15 minutes before serving.

SPINACH FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to broil.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt and pepper until smooth. Fold in the cheese and tomatoes and set aside.
• In a 9-inch, oven-safe nonstick frying pan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the onion and saute until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the spinach and cook until wilted, about 2 minutes. Pour the egg mixture over the spinach, and cook until almost set, 2 to 4 minutes.
• Transfer the pan to the oven and broil until golden brown on top, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from the oven and turn out onto a serving plate.

CREAMED SPINACH

Steps:

• In batches, saute the spinach in a large saute pan over high heat until wilted, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
• In the same pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onions and garlic; cook until translucent, 5 to 8 minutes. Add the butter and flour; cook for 2 minutes. Slowly whisk in the milk and bring to a boil (it will thicken as comes to a boil). Turn off the heat and stir in the Parmesan, nutmeg and sauteed spinach.
