Found this recipe in Taste of Home's August/September 2007 Edition. Made recently for a group of teenagers and they enjoyed. Served with sausage on the side and a salad. I halved the amount of spinach and think it turned out well like that. I think "brick" cheese is not referring to a type of cheese, but that it comes in a brick and you cut it into cubes as opposed to shredded cheese. So that would mean it was up to you what flavor cheese you prefer. I used muenster, but that ended up a little stringy so next time I'll use something different. Something that melts better. Fontina sounds good, but I don't find it around here too often.
