Can I adapt this gratin with other greens? Yes. Cook the beef and bacon until browned, then fold in spinach until wilted, mix with a light cheese sauce, layer with cheese, and bake until bubbling.

Can I prepare this ahead? Yes. Use any sturdy greens like kale or chard; cook slightly longer to reduce moisture before layering.

Is this freezable? Yes. Assemble, refrigerate unbaked for up to 24 hours, then bake as directed.
