3Then add a little more olive oil, and add some drained tomatoes. You can certainly use fresh if they are in season! You can also add the frozen veggies at this time. If using frozen veggies and frozen spinach, I steam first, then plop into the frying pan, then into the casserole dish.
4Add a little more olive oil, and then the spinach. You can add a whisked egg into the spinach before you add it to the casserole dish - to give it a bit more body.
5With any remaining olive oil, add to pan, de-glazing as you go and add chopped garlic to taste. Add this last little bit to your casserole dish and toss everything together.
6Mix in the Parmesan cheese in last, and add the mozzerella on top. Back at 350 for 30 minutes
