Directions

1 Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Rub butter all over a 2-quart baking dish.
2 Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add ground beef, pepper, onion powder, and salt; cook and stir until browned, 5 to 8 minutes.

4 Lay 6 saltine crackers in the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Top with 1/2 the ground beef. Dollop 1/3 of the mushroom soup mixture over beef. Lay remaining saltines on top. Cover with spinach and another 1/3 of the mushroom soup mixture. Spread remaining ground beef and mushroom soup mixture on top. Cover with mushrooms.
