My sister-in-law Deb created this recipe one day--had run out of broccoli and added the
spinach to substitute when to our surprise it was so delicious and unique. I've added the
spices. This dish is great to bring as a side dish to a party---I am always asked to bring it...
best of all kids love it and adults can't seem to get enough....also freezes well.
