I usually double this recipe to make sure that my husband and I both get a decent helping of it in our bowls.

I have made this recipe several times, and I love it as a light meal. Usually I halve the quantity of spinach, and add an additional 1/2 c. of cheese (I use Kraft Triple Cheddar blend) and 1/4 t. garlic powder. It is very quick, easy, and yummy!

I've made this three times now, but I substitue the same amount of broccoli for the spinach. This is super-thick, but would taste just as good with half the cheese if you like a looser consistancy.
