Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Sausage Spinach Cheese Bake.
Step 1
Begin by heating a skillet over medium-high heat and browning the Italian sausage until it’s fully cooked.
Step 2
Once done, drain any excess fat and stir in the rich tomato sauce, then set this savory sausage mixture aside.
Step 3
Preheat your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking.
Step 4
In a large mixing bowl, combine the thawed and drained spinach with creamy cottage cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, and a beaten egg.
Step 5
Mix these ingredients until they are well blended, then spread this vibrant spinach mixture evenly across the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish.
Step 6
Next, generously spoon the sausage and tomato mixture over the spinach layer, and finish by sprinkling a layer of shredded mozzarella cheese on top.
Step 7
Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 40 minutes, or until the cheese is beautifully bubbly and golden brown, filling your kitchen with an irresistible aroma.
Step 8
Enjoy the delightful layers of flavor in every bite!.
