I found this recipe on allrecipes.com. It called for mozzarella cheese but I substituted a soft provolone cheese for the mozzarella and it called for garlic which I didn't use. Everyone liked it and the whole thing was gone in no time and with so much spinach in it, I dubbed it to be healthy. Serve it with your favorite crackers, it's a little too hardy for chips. Enjoy the recipe.
