Notes
Grated Cheese - can be cheddar, mozzarella, pizza cheese, gruyere, Emmenthal. A good melting cheese that you enjoy. :)
For the Cheese topping, use as much as you like. I used about ½ cup or 50 grams.
You can use frozen or fresh spinach. For frozen spinach, thaw, press out to discard extra waters, and chop small. For fresh spinach, blanch (cook 2-3 minutes in boiling water), strain, compress, and chop up.
