Thick-cut bread layered with garlicky sautéed spinach, creamy feta, and melted mozzarella—a sophisticated take on the beloved comfort classic.
# Ingredient List:
→ Vegetables
01 - 2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
02 - 1 garlic clove, minced
→ Dairy
03 - 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
04 - 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
05 - 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
→ Bread
06 - 4 thick slices country-style or sourdough bread
→ Seasonings
07 - 1 tablespoon olive oil
08 - 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
09 - Salt to taste
# Directions:
01 - Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant. Add chopped spinach and cook, stirring, until wilted, approximately 2 minutes. Season lightly with salt and pepper. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
02 - In a bowl, combine sautéed spinach with crumbled feta and shredded mozzarella. Mix thoroughly until well incorporated.
03 - Lay out all bread slices. Evenly distribute spinach-feta mixture over 2 slices, then top each with remaining bread slices to form 2 sandwiches.
04 - Spread softened butter evenly over the outside surfaces of each sandwich.
05 - Heat a clean skillet or griddle over medium-low heat. Place sandwiches in skillet and cook 3 to 4 minutes per side, pressing lightly with spatula, until bread is golden brown and cheese is melted throughout.
06 - Remove sandwiches from heat, let rest for 1 minute, then slice diagonally and serve warm.
