Spinach Squares

spinach squaresI used to be afraid to try using whole wheat flour in many dishes but my husband will only eat whole wheat flour so I have no choice. Believe it or not this dish is delicious with the whole wheat flour (as most dishes are). It is so yummy you may even be able to get your kids to eat it.

4 ounces Monterey jack cheese (low-fat if you have it)
4 ounces fat-free mozzarella cheese
2 10 ounce boxes frozen chopped spinach thawed and drained
