Cream Spinach Casserole

I love cream spinach and this is even better.  I always serve this for fancy dinner parties.

Recipe: preheat oven to 350 degrees 

Baked for 40 minutes or until golden. 

Butter a casserole pan ( I used corning ware )

2 packages frozen spinach

1 package cream cheese ( room temperature and very soft)

1 can cream of chicken soup or cream of mushroom (The original recipe says Cream of Mushroom, I had Cream of Chicken on Hand.) It worked out fabulous!

2 T. Parmesan grated cheese

1 egg

1/4 tsp. garlic powder

pinch salt

pinch pepper

1 large sweet vidalia onion sliced thin on mandolin

3 T. flour  

(Extra pinch of salt and pepper to season frizzled onion rings)

 2 T. more grated Parmesan cheese for top

I sliced my onion rings on the mandolin.  Seasoned with salt and pepper. Floured with 3T. flour and fried in hot oil.  Set aside on top of paper towels to remove excess oil. 

In a large bowl, add spinach, soup, egg, cheese, garlic powder, salt and pepper and half the onions.  Mix with a big wooden spoon.  Put into buttered casserole pan, add remaining onions and grated cheese.  Bake and serve warm or at room temperature.
