I liked this, but tweaked it... I used fresh spinach, turkey meatballs, and added mushrooms, olives, and plenty of garlic and onion... I also eliminated the shredded cheese in spinach mixture, and substituted with fat free cottage cheese... next time I will do this, and eliminate the cream cheese. Definitely healthier, still as good. Topped with freshly grated parm... It was a hit

VERY good!! I did make homemade meatballs instead of frozen and I only put the bisquick on top instead of layered and it tasted amazing. HIGHLY recommend this recipe!!

The 13x9x2 was way to big for this meal, an 8x11x2 or even a 8x8 would have fit perfect. I didn't quite understand the reason for the layering, so I just did one layer. The pictured didn't look layered either. The cream cheese made it very rich. It was good, but very heavy. I also used homemade meatballs.
