Frequently Asked Questions

What's the key to using frozen spinach in this recipe?

When using frozen spinach, which I prefer, it is important to thaw it according to the package instructions; from there, you want to drain all of the liquid from the spinach. There will be more liquid than you'd think!

Can I substitute another cheese in this recipe?

I think you could substitute many cheeses in this recipe, especially if you are using what is on hand. I would stick with white cheeses for this recipe and I would ensure that the total amount of cheese still equaled 2 cups.

Pro Tips For Making This Recipe

Make sure that your spinach is well-drained; if not, the souffle will have unwanted liquid content.
Allow cream cheese to reach room temperature prior to mixing. It makes mixing so much easier!
Season with additional salt and pepper according to your taste preferences.
