This was okay, I won’t make it again, I love Gruyere but the sauce was really thin and seemed like it wasn’t really a part of the dish, the spinach was just sitting in it.

I’ve made Creamed Spinach before but adding Gruyere is a HUGE taste bonus!  This is absolutely wonderful and can be made quickly and easily on a work night .  Two thumbs up!
