Ingredients

3/4 pound fresh Italian sausage links

2 10-ounce packages fresh spinach, cooked and well drained, or two 10-ounce packages frozen chopped spinach, thawed and well drained

1 19- or 15-ounce can white kidney beans (cannellini) or great Northern beans, rinsed and drained

1 small red onion, finely chopped

3/4 cup evaporated skim milk

1/2 cup grated Romano or Parmesan cheese

1 teaspoon finely shredded lemon peel

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1/8 teaspoon pepper

1/3 cup fine dry bread crumbs

2 cloves garlic, minced

4 teaspoons margarine or butter, melted

Directions

In a large skillet cook sausage over medium heat about 8 minutes or until no pink remains, turning often. Drain on paper towels. Slice into bite-size pieces.

In a large mixing bowl combine cooked sausage, spinach, beans, onion, milk, 1/4 cup of the Romano or Parmesan cheese, lemon peel, lemon juice, nutmeg, and pepper. Transfer mixture to a greased 2-quart oval or square baking dish.

For topping, in a small mixing bowl combine bread crumbs, remaining 1/4 cup of the Romano or Parmesan cheese, garlic, and melted margarine or butter; sprinkle atop casserole. Bake, uncovered, in a 375 degrees F oven for 35 minutes or until heated through.
