Version 2 with Spinach

Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (191 degrees C).
- If using frozen spinach, thaw and squeeze to drain first. If using broccoli, place it into a pot of water and bring to a boil. Simmer for 1-2 minutes until bright green.

- Bake for about 15 minutes, until hot and bubbly.
Notes
For extra ranch flavor, add 1-3 teaspoons of ranch seasoning mix, in addition to the dressing.
