Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly oil the bottom and sides of a 10" oval casserole dish or an 8" x 8" square pan.
In a heavy-bottomed pan, sauté fresh onion and garlic in olive oil. Cook for 3-5 minutes, until tender and golden-brown.
Thaw and drain spinach (squeeze spinach in a colander or between 2 strong paper towels to get every bit of water out of the spinach).
In a large mixing bowl, whip cream cheese. Stir in condensed mushroom soup. Add sautéed onion and spinach. Transfer spinach mixture to prepared casserole dish or pan.
Bake 15-20 minutes, or until center is heated through.
