Uncle Ben's Stuffed Spinach from Rochelle Wetsch, Grand Forks
"When I was a practicing Realtor in Grand Forks, I found this recipe 27 years ago tacked to the wall in an old vacant Red River Valley farmstead kitchen. I don't even know who Uncle Ben is, but I sure do like his delicious spinach, especially at our Thanksgiving dinner or during the busy Christmas holiday season when I'm entertaining."
1 10-oz. pkg. frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
¾ cup bread crumbs
½ cup butter, melted

¼ cup Parmesan cheese
