Wonderful recipe. I'm always looking for new uses for spinach. I also used fresh garlic and some nutmeg. This recipe is great with or without the bacon.

This was a good recipe for my favorite vegtable. I like to fix it all different ways and I will keep this as an option. I like another reviewers idea of the nutmeg.

Made this to go with steak tonight and both the husband and I liked it. I would use a bit less flour next time as I found it to be a bit too thick. Good taste though, and better after it sat in the fridge after I made it. We'll be eating it as leftovers for two more meals, and I bet the flavors will continue to improve!

I do not know how Lawrys spinach tastes, but we enjoyed this. Loved the bacon in it, I added that the last minute so it would stay crispy. Used fresh garlic and added a grating of fresh nutmeg.

I didn't cook the spinach before hand, just squeezed the water out of it and warmed it up after adding to recipe. I didn't have seasoned salt and pepper, and the family felt it was too salty. I would cut it at least in half next time. Loved the flavor with the bacon in it! I also used a Vidalia onion. Made for Cameraless Chef.
