Mushrooms Florentine
1 10-oz. pkg frozen chopped spinach
Salt, pepper, and garlic powder to taste
1/2 medium yellow onion, chopped small
1/2 lb (225 g) sliced mushrooms
Enough Smart Balance spread to sauté them in
Enough grated low-fat cheddar cheese to create a sparse
layer over the spinach
Directions:
Preheat oven to 325F (160C).
Thaw the spinach and squeeze all the water out of it. Place it in either a Pyrex
casserole, a Corning ware dish, or similar, spreading it out evenly.
Sprinkle salt, pepper, and garlic powder evenly across the surface of the spinachto
taste, but not too liberally.
Sprinkle the onion evenly across the surface too. Sauté the mushrooms in butter or butter
sub till theyre a nice color, and then add them with the butter to the top of the
spinach, spreading them out evenly.
Finally, sprinkle the cheddar on top evenly, sparsely. (The spinach should not be
completely covered by the cheese.) Bake uncovered for approximately 20 minutes. (If you
are cooking this with another dish, and the other dish isnt ready on time, the
Mushrooms Florentine can cook an extra five minutes or so.)
