Cheesy Italian Spinach Bake

A three- layered cheesy spinach bake with the perfect crispy breadcrumb topping. You will be salivating over this one.

This recipe came from a dish I made for my mom after she had knee replacement surgery. She was low on iron and I had just learned spinach was a great source of iron, but she hated spinach. How could I make spinach taste good? Garlic, cheese, and more cheese. This Italian spinach bake is just that with a crunchy breadcrumb layer on top. I love the idea of this as a creamed spinach vibe, but instead of cream use ricotta and eggs. Cream is so hard on the gut sometimes. This dish will turn any spinach hater into a lover, take it from me. Layered with grated mozzarella, caramelized onions, good Parmigiano Reggiano, and the best garlic sourdough bread crisps that add a crunch to every bite. Try this one for sure.
