Greens And Mozzarella Casserole

    Very yummy, and nutritious too!! We used whole cream instead of the half and half and the sauce was wonderfully smooth and creamy and lightly cheesy. The texture reminded me of alfredo sauce. It did slop around a bit as mentioned in other reviews but everyone like it, so thanks for a nice recipe to try!
