Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees F. Thaw spinach as desired - overnight in fridge, microwave. Squeeze frozen chopped spinach to remove excess moisture then combine with creamed spinach. Bring an 8-12 inch cast iron skillet to medium-high heat, then sauté onion in 1 TBSP butter or oil, adding minced garlic towards the end to prevent burning. Add the shrimp and sauté for a few additional minutes until the shrimp turn opaque. Season with salt and reduce heat to lowest setting. Add your spinach and cheeses (including cream cheese) and mix well. Re-season to taste if desired. Top with extra cheese if desired (a little extra cheese is always welcome) then add a pinch of red pepper flakes. Bake for 15-20 minutes until dip is hot and bubbly.
