Baked Spinach Dip

I had some fresh spinach that I needed to use up, so I decided it was time to try spinach dip. I know normally people take their crockpot and let it warm up to serve at parties and also the recipes usually call for frozen/thawed spinach. The baked method with fresh spinach is actually much fresher; not so mushy. The key in the flavor is in high quality cheeses. Definitely does not need salt. It was pretty perfect. The next day we tried it cold and it was just as delicious. I can't wait to make this one for guests!

Baked Swiss Steak

The hubby went to the store this weekend and it looks like another week of "manager's special surprise" (meats).  Tonight it is going to be tenderized steaks (pre-seasoned) and the lucky winner is---Taste of Home for their baked Swiss Steak recipe. I think the teenager is just happy it's a zucchini free night, although he managed to wolf down the zucchini disguised as brownies. :)  This one would be an easy slow cooker meal; if I ever get this surprise meat again, I will probably try other variations. *The onions and tomatoes came straight from our garden--yum!
[The hubby doesn't like green peppers which is traditionally what I associate with swiss steak, so I have to think outside of the box.]
