HELPFUL HINTS
- Do-Ahead Tip: Conveniently, this tastes even better when it is made one day ahead and reheated
- *Cooking tip if using fresh spinach instead of frozen: Use 10 oz. baby spinach leaves and cook spinach for 3 minutes in 2 tablespoons water in saucepan over low to medium heat. Stir gently until wilted. Rinse in cold water, drain well and squeeze dry.
