Hi there! The correct amount of cream cheese is 3-ounces. However, if you decide to use 8-ounces you'll just have an extra-creamy casserole. Enjoy!

I also doubt "3 oz". With 2 packages of 10oz spinach, I'd go with 8 oz.

Sounds great, but I would leave out the nuts for sure. Also would change the name. Working at a hospital for years, I have learned to avoid any thing with Surprise or Delight in the title. take care all and thanks

This was really good & so simple to make! I toasted the pecans before adding them. The only thing i would do different next time is add cheese in the last 5 minutes of baking.

I love this recipe. An old Greek woman gave it to me a long time ago. I had a brain aneurysm & lost contact with EVERYONE in the town I was living in. I am now in an 'assisted living' & finally my C & a private room in another town. sILVER bELLE (marianne39506@hotmail.com)

White House Strawberries Romanoff 
This classic dessert is so special, it's worthy of being on a White House menu. Come to think of it...it was! This is one of the desserts that was served when former President Kennedy and his family hosted a luncheon for Princess Grace Kelly. The good news is, you don't have to be royalty to enjoy our White House Strawberries Romanoff!
