Spinach and Cream Cheese Gratin

This recipe is from the Vegetarian Low-Carb Diet by Rose Elliott. This is good for Phases 1, 2 and 3. Keep some frozen chopped spinach in the freezer and you can make this recipe in an instant. I find the best way to drain all the excess water off the defrosted spinach is to squash it into a fine mesh sieve with the back of a spoon.
