I just made this today Witchy......absolutely delicious! I love using fresh spinach.....my only changes were that I used fat free half and half instead of the milk, and I added a pinch of nutmeg, cause there is just something about nutmeg and spinach that go together....thanks so much for sharing your recipe....the family loves it!
