Introduction

My husband (who's not dieting and loves everything bad for you) goes crazy every time I make this. It's very tasty - and the spinach is pretty subtle!

Number of Servings: 8

Ingredients

    1 pound ground beef
    2 tablespoons onion, chopped
    1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
    1/2 cup spaghetti sauce
    8 ounces cream cheese
    1 egg
    1/8 teaspoon pepper
    10 ounces frozen chopped spinach, thawed & drained
    4 ounces mozzarella cheese, shredded
    2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese

Directions

Brown the hamburger with the onion; drain off the fat. Mix in the garlic powder and spaghetti sauce; season to taste and heat until bubbly. Meanwhile, soften the cream cheese in a medium-size microwaveable bowl for about 40-60 seconds. Stir until creamy; beat in the egg and pepper with a spoon until well mixed. Blend in the spinach. Spread half of the meat mixture evenly in the bottom of a greased, 8 x 8" glass baking pan. Spread the spinach mixture over the meat; top with the mozzarella, then the rest of the meat. It may not completely cover the top, but that's OK. Sprinkle with the Parmesan cheese. Bake at 350º about 30 minutes until hot and bubbly.

    I believe this recipe originally came from genaw.com. My suggestion is to put all the meat mixture at the bottom then the spinach/cream cheese mixture on top. Then add the mozzarella and then parmesan. I put in a lot of extra seasonings and used 5Italian cheese mixture. - 11/9/13

    Delicious!!! I made it with hot Italian sausage instead of ground beef because I didn't have any and it is amazing. Can't wait to have leftovers for lunch tomorrow! Thanks!! - 7/25/13

    Loved it! I tweaked it just a little by using ground turkey instead of ground beef. I also added a bag of cauliflower mixed in with the spinach. I think that gave if more texture, maybe a bit more like a pasta. It was super easy and will definitely make again! Thanks! - 3/19/13

    I would add zucchini, thinly sliced lengthwise to serve as noodles and mushrooms in with meat sauce. - 7/2/17
