For an extra layer of flavor, sauté a finely chopped onion and a clove of garlic in butter until softened before adding them to the spinach mixture. Ensure the spinach is thoroughly drained. Excess moisture will result in a watery casserole. Press the thawed spinach between paper towels to remove as much liquid as possible. Feel free to experiment with different cheeses. Gruyere, Monterey Jack, or a blend of cheeses would also work well in this recipe. This casserole can be assembled ahead of time. Cover and refrigerate unbaked for up to 24 hours. Add about 10 minutes to the baking time if baking from cold. Garnish with a sprinkle of paprika or a few chopped chives for added visual appeal.
