- Spread in a greased, shallow baking dish.
- Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese (and more Creole Seasoning if you so desire).
- Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes.
- Serve with Pita Wedges (brushed with olive oil, sprinkled with paprika and creole seasoning and toasted), toasted french bread, or Wheat Thins.
- *You can substitute other types of cheese.
- I often use whatever mix of white cheeses I have on hand.
- Pepper Jack is also really good in this.
- *Ive found that it is imperative that the spinach is well drained in order to avoid a soupy mess.
- Place the thawed spinach in a colander or mesh strainer, and press to drain the liquid.
- I then take the spinach, working in batches, and squeeze it dry between paper towels.
