Receta Shrimp and Spinach Gratin
This recipe is one I created when I could not find the main ingredient for a main dish I planed. I had most of the other ingredients so I improvised, changed a bit of this and substituted a bit of that....
The result was this delicious casserole. It's a one dish meal and very easy to prepare.
If you like spicier food, add some crushed red pepper flakes to the spinach and/or the cheese layers.
I call for Italian seasoning but you can substitute a blend of basil, oregano, marjoram, thyme, and rosemary. The amount of Italian seasoning you use will vary depending on potency of the herbs.
