Chopped, sauteed greens mixed with a roux and three types of cheeses may be the furthest spinach has ever strayed from a salad bowl.

Recipe Source: Calhoun's Restaurant, Knoxville, TN via Knoxville News Sentinel, date unknown cook's notes This is light years away from being low fat/cal; but I can honestly say it's the best creamy/cheesy spinach dish I have ever eaten... and I love spinach, so I've tried lots of them!

Frankly, I've never met a cheese I don't like, so the Kitchen Crew and I couldn't wait to try out this cheesy, buttery spinach. And what a treat it is! This comforting recipe would be right at home atop a picnic table or served on your best china. Yum!

Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 13

5 pkg frozen chopped spinach (10 oz each pkg)
4 1/2 c milk
1 tsp dry mustard
1 tsp garlic powder
1 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
1/2 medium yellow onion
1 Tbsp butter
5 Tbsp butter, melted
6 Tbsp flour
8 oz Velveeta cheese, cubed
8 oz cheddar cheese, cubed
4 oz Monterey Jack cheese, cubed
1 1/2 c Monterey Jack cheese, shredded

Steps:

  • 1. Thaw spinach & squeeze as much excess water as possible from spinach
  • 2. Heat milk and spices in a 4 qt.saucepan on medium heat to just below a boil. Reduce and simmer. NOTE: the spice quantities listed (mustard, garlic, red pepper flakes) give the dish just a "flavor" but little kick. I will usually double the spices for more flavor & heat (it is not too much). If I have a crowd that likes it hot, I will replace the teaspoon measurement with tablespoon for all three spices...at this level you get a slow burn that lingers but isn't a 4-alarm fire.
  • 3. Saute chopped onion in 1 TBSP butter on medium heat for 5-8 minutes. Add onion to saucepan.
  • 4. Combine the 5 TBSP melted butter with the flour in a small saucepan. Mix until completely blended. Cook on low heat 2-3 minutes. Add to milk in saucepan and mix. Continue to cook until sauce thickens.
  • 5. Cut cheeses into small cubes and add to saucepan. Continue to mix until all the cheese is completely melted and blended into the sauce. Be CAREFUL not to BURN the sauce while cheese is melting.
  • 6. Remove from heat. Allow to cool for 15 minutes. Add drained spinach to cheese sauce and mix till completely blended
  • 7. Spoon into a 11x9x2 or large casserole and top with grated Monterey jack cheese. Bake at 350 for 12-15 minutes, until hot and bubbly
  • 8. I often like to add a dab of horse radish to indiviual servings...gives it a really nice kick...this way your guests can opt in or out for some heat. Taste it first though, as you may love the kick as it is.

SPINACH MARIA RECIPE



Spinach Maria Recipe image

Provided by á-167595

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 tbsp. butter, separated into 1 tbsp. and 5 tbsp.
1/2 yellow onion, diced
4 c. milk
2 tsp. garlic powder
1 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes
1 tsp. mustard powder
5 packages frozen spinach, thawed (50 ounces total)
5 tbsp. flour
1 c. Velveeta cheese, cut into slices
1 c. shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
1 1/2 c. grated Monterey Jack cheese, divided into 1/2 c. and 1 c.

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Place 1 tbsp. butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Once it's melted, add the onion and cook until the onion has softened and turned lightly golden, about 4-5 minutes. Add milk, garlic powder, red pepper flakes and mustard powder into the saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring regularly. As soon as it starts to boil, reduce the heat to simmer, leaving it there to thicken. Melt the remaining 5 tbsp. butter in a smaller saucepan, then sprinkle 5 tbsp. flour in it. Stir the flour in to form a paste, cooking over low heat for about 2-3 minutes. Add this mixture to the large saucepan filled with milk and spices. Stir to combine. Reduce the heat on the large saucepan to medium, then gradually add the Velveeta and cheddar cheese, stirring regularly so that the cheese melts, creating a thick sauce. Add in 1/2 c. Monterey Jack cheese, setting aside the other cup for topping the spinach dish. Once all of the cheese has melted, remove the saucepan from heat. Drain any excess water from the thawed spinach. Add it to the cheese sauce, mixing to combine. Pour the mixture into a large casserole dish and top with remaining Monterey Jack cheese. Cook in the oven for 15-17 minutes, or until the cheese has melted and the mixture is bubbly slightly.

Calhoun's Knoxville Tennessee Spinach Maria image

If you live in Knoxville or have ever visited and eaten at Calhoun's, you surely love Spinach Maria. It is WONDERFUL!! It is a great side dish but you can also use this as an appetizer or party food. It is like a cheesy spinach dip. SO YUMMY!!!!! The recipe was printed in the Knoxville paper. You can also scale it down if you don't want such a large amount--but it is great leftover!!
