Spinach Potato Loaf

I found this in a Pilsbury Easy Vegetarian Meals cookbook. My boys hate spinach but they like this. I make it for my vegetarian family when they visit. Although we love vegetarian food, we do still eat meat too. This is easy to make and tastes great. I leave out the nutmeg because we don't care for it. I use powdered garlic instead..
