Ingredients

12 ounce package frozen chopped spinach
3 eggs
1½ cup cottage cheese small curd, 4% milkfat
4 ounces cheese cubed, sharp Cheddar
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon flour

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350℉. Microwave the spinach for 2 to 3 minutes to thaw, then place in a strainer and squeeze the water out. Set aside. Microwave the butter for about 15 seconds to melt. Grease a small casserole dish (1½ to 2 quart) with cooking spray.
In a medium mixing bowl, beat the eggs. Then add the cottage cheese, cubed cheese, and flour. Stir to combine.
Add the melted butter and spinach and stir well to combine.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared casserole dish.
Place in the preheated oven and bake, uncovered, for 40 to 45 minutes. The middle will be set and the edges will be bubbly, and some of the cheese will be lightly browned on top.
Remove from the oven. The casserole is ready to serve right away.

Notes

To make this gluten free, you can omit the flour. You might have a little liquid in the bottom of the dish but otherwise the taste and texture is still excellent.
