    Gradually whisk milk and cream into onion mixture, stirring constantly

    mixture to prepared baking dish. Combine crumbs, butter, oil, and
    seasonings . Top spinach with crumbs, packing them to adhere.

    dish on a baking sheet and bake until crumbs are golden and sauce is
    bubbly, 20 minutes or a little more.

    [snip recipe]

    Looks really good. I might consider omitting the ubiquitous parmesan
    just to let the Boursin have center stage, but that's just a matter of
    individual taste. The lemon zest and nutmeg are proven spinach
    enhancers; I often add them to plain spinach. -aem
