Ingredients
- 2 (10 oz) packages frozen spinach, thawed and drained
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs (optional, for topping)
- 2 tablespoons melted butter (optional, for breadcrumbs)
Instructions
1️⃣ Preheat & Prep:
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a casserole dish lightly with cooking spray or butter.
2️⃣ Mix the Base:
In a large bowl, combine spinach, sour cream, cream cheese, garlic, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir until well mixed.
3️⃣ Cheese It Up:
Stir in the mozzarella and half of the Parmesan cheese, blending everything together.
4️⃣ Assemble:
Spread the mixture evenly into the casserole dish. Sprinkle the remaining Parmesan cheese on top. If you’re using breadcrumbs, mix them with melted butter and sprinkle over the cheese layer for an extra crispy topping.
5️⃣ Bake:
Bake uncovered for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is bubbly and golden brown.
6️⃣ Serve:
Let it cool slightly before serving. Enjoy the cheesy, creamy goodness!
Would you like to add a protein (maybe chicken or bacon) or some heat (like red pepper flakes) to give it a twist? 🍲✨
