Boston Market Creamed Spinach Reduced-Fat

When Boston Market first opened in 1989, it was called Boston Chicken. That's because at that time chicken was the only meat served at the chain. But three years later, in 1992, the chain added meatloaf, turkey, and ham, and officially became Boston Market. Yes, a lot of signs had to be changed, at considerable expenses.
This popular side dish, which contains three types of cheese, normally has 24 grams of fat per serving. So, for this recipe, we will be using two fat-free cheeses along with regular Provolone, and we'll be able to re-create the taste of the real thing, but only 25 percent of the fat in the original.

Tried this recipe the other night, it tastes exactly like Boston Market! My daughter was so excited about it she wanted me to make it AGAIN the next day! And a friend of ours who doesn't like spinach told me he LOVED it!
