Found this very same recipe in the Companys Coming Cookbook.....subbed swiss chard and kale for the spinach and served over wholewheat egg noodles

Great flavor! Easy , attractive, and full of lots of wonderful flavors. I halved the recipe and made a couple additions. I added 1/4 c. white wine, a 1/8 c. half and half, white pepper , and I mixed the dry breadcrumbs with some panko and some shredded cheddar in addition to the butter and parmesan.

Easy, quick & delicious. I added yellow peppers and served over pesto egg noodles as was suggested. Keeper

A keeper! My only comment would be that I was not sure whether this called for regular mushroom soup, or cream of mushroom. I went with creamy, and it was excellent. Got everyone to clean up their spinach too! Crusty bread is a great way to clean up the sauce left on the plate too.
