Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1 cup fresh spinach, chopped
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup cream cheese, softened

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter and sauté the garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Notes
- For an extra flavor boost, try adding a pinch of nutmeg to the spinach mixture.
- If you want a crunchier topping, broil the dish for an additional 2-3 minutes after baking.
