Kraft Kitchens Tips

Make it Easy

Spray foil with cooking spray before using to cover casserole. Place, sprayed-side down, on casserole to prevent sticking.

Make Ahead

Assemble recipe as directed. Refrigerate up to 24 hours. When ready to serve, bake, covered, at 400°F for 35 min. or until heated through.

Freeze Ahead

Reserve 1/2 cup of the mozzarella. Assemble recipe as directed, but do not top with the reserved mozzarella. Wrap casserole in foil; freeze. When ready to serve, heat oven to 400°F. Unwrap casserole; cover with foil. Bake 55 min. or until heated through, removing foil after 30 min. Top with reserved mozzarella; bake 2 min. or until melted.

Excellent, my whole family loved it. I use ricotta cheese instead of cottage cheese

This recipe is pretty good. It looks so elegant!! I had suggestions to cut down on the spinach and put meat in it. I will definately make this again and again!

This recipe is a bit time consuming but well worth it, my sweetheart can't ever get enough of it nor can I.

Very good, easy recipe. Made it before work, popped it in the fridge and just had to put it in the oven when I got home. I added browned ground beef to the cheese mixture, and cut back on the spinach a bit. It seemed like a rather large amount of spinach. Made 2 pans - one for dinner, one for the freezer.
