There isn't a thing in this recipe that doesn't sound great. I can't wait to try it. I love the amount of protein and carbs.

For low carbers, you don't want to use fat free cheese! You want regular, full fat products. Low carb is not low fat so be careful with such substitutions for you are following the Atkins nutritional approach. Aside from that, this looks like a good casserole.

It is filling. It's a good basic recipe, I think next time I will flavor the ground beef more with spices. It was kind of bland. I also substituted the spinach for brocolli.

I had to use butter instead of the cooking spray. It was good, but I realized only too late that bacon grease would have worked better in the recipe.
