2, 10 ounce packages frozen chopped spinach
4 Tbsp. butter
3 Tbsp. green hot sauce
2 Tbsp. flour
2 Tbsp. chopped onion
1/2 cup evaporated milk
1/2 cup vegetable liquid
1/2 tsp. black pepper
3/4 tsp. celery salt
1 - 6 oz. roll garlic cheese (cut into small pieces)
1 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
Red pepper (to taste)
Cook spinach according to package directions. Drain
and reserve liquor. Melt butter in saucepan over low heat,
and add flour, stirring until blended and smooth, but not
brown.
Add onion and cook until soft, but not brown. Add liquid
slowly, stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Cook until
smooth and thick; continue stirring. Add seasonings and
cheese. Stir until melted. Combine with cooked spinach.
This may be served immediately or put in a casserole and
topped with buttered bread crumbs. The flavor is improved
if the casserole is kept in the refrigerator overnight. The
dish may also be frozen. Serves 5 to 6.
