Spinach Casserole

Serves: 9

Mozzarella, feta and processed cheeses are combined with spinach, butter and seasonings, and baked between buttery layers of phyllo dough.
I use this as a main dish casserole, side dish or as an appetizer--whatever the occasion calls for.
If you prefer, you may also add 1 can of rotel tomatoes to the cheese-spinach mixture for a little zing.
