Instructions

Lightly grease a 9 x 13 inch baking dish and set aside.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add butter. Once butter is melted add fresh spinach. Season with salt and pepper. Cook until wilted and tender (approximately 2 minutes). Remove from heat and cool.
In a large mixing bowl whisk together egg whites, whole eggs, Italian seasoning and garlic powder.
Fold in 2 cups of cheese with spinach and place in the prepared baking dish. Top with remaining 1/2 cup of cheese.
OR place spinach evenly on the bottom of the prepared baking dish and add egg mixture on top followed with the remaining 1/2 cup of cheese.
Bake uncovered for 25-30 minutes.
To test for doneness, insert a knife in the center of the casserole. If it comes out clean, then it's done. For an exact temperature reading, the thermometer probe should reach 160 degrees.

Notes

You may use 10 whole eggs in place of the egg whites. Add 1/2 cup of milk, heavy cream or half and half.
For thicker slices use a smaller baking dish and increase baking time.
