For a richer flavor, try using Gruyere or Parmesan cheese in addition to, or instead of, Cheddar. Add a pinch of nutmeg to the spinach mixture for a subtle warmth. A squeeze of lemon juice over the finished dish brightens the flavors. Feel free to substitute other white fish such as haddock, tilapia, or pollock. To prevent the breadcrumbs from burning, you can lightly toast them in a dry skillet before adding them to the dish.
