Steps

1

|
2
Done
|
When Done Boiling Spinach/Onion Mixture Until Onion Is Soft and Spinach Is Thawed and Cooked, Drain Off All the Liquid from Spinach Mixture. If Substantial Liquid Remains, It Can Destroy the Integrity of the Casserole and Make It So Soupy That the Bread Topping Gets Ruined. |

Also, Be Sure to Cool the Spinach Mixture Completely. If It Isn't Cool, the Egg Component May Coagulate and Cook, Also Ruining the Integrity of the Casserole. |

Cube the Dried Slices of Bread (can Dry in Oven to Speed Up the Process), With a Knife the Pieces Don't Need to Be Exact Cubes. Just Bite Sized Dried Bread. |

|
10

|
11
Done
|
Once Bread Is on Top of Spinach Casserole Layer, Take Melted Butter or Margarine (don't Be Stingy, Use as Much as You Need to Soak Into the Bread Cubes Pretty Well), and Drizzle It as Evenly as Possible Over the Dry Bread Cubes That Are on Top of the Spinach Layer. |
