My thoughts:
This recipe is a flake of an strange one. I don't know if oysters au gratin is a affair (if it's not, it should be!) but I had picked upward 2 pints of oysters a piece back. One pint I made into oyster po'boys for the 2nd fourth dimension inwards well-nigh 2 months as well as I didn't convey whatever persuasion what to produce amongst the 2nd jar. Finally, I had to brand them or guide chances spoilage as well as thus I came upward amongst this dish. It ended upward beingness actually good! Who knew? I served it equally a side but it definitely could survive a primary dish, it is rather filling.It isn't equally rich equally it could survive equally I didn't add together anything but spinach, a little total of bacon as well as oysters inwards the filling--no dairy at all, as well as topped it amongst a pocket-size total of cheese. The trial was a fresh tasty, briny dish that seemed actually festive despite me whipping it upward on a random weeknight on a whim.
