This was super delicious. I used a 26oz bag (instead of three 10oz pgs) of frozen spinach, and it was a sufficient amount of spinach. Spinach and artichoke go so well together, especially in this recipe with the addition of the cream cheese and buttered breadcrumb topping. It was super good, and we all loved it. Thanks, breezermom!

This was really nice and very simple to throw together. Made for photo tag summer 2013
