My cousin introduced my to this sandwich years ago. Not only is it quick and easy, it's a guaranteed crowd-pleaser. Try it at your next potluck and see for yourself. Ingredients:
3 garlic cloves, minced |
3 tablespoons olive oil |
2 packages (10 ounces each) frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry |
3/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
6 bacon strips, cooked and crumbled |
1-1/2 cups (6 ounces) shredded mozzarella cheese |
1 loaf (1 pound) italian bread |
1/4 cup shredded parmesan cheese, optional |
Directions:
1. In a large skillet over medium heat, saute garlic in oil. Add spinach, salt and pepper; cook, stirring occasionally, until heated through. Remove from the heat; cool for 5 minutes. Add bacon and mozzarella; mix well. Slice bread horizontally. Spread about 2-1/4 cups spinach mixture on each half. Sprinkle with Parmesan if desired. Bake at 450° for 6-8 minutes or until cheese is melted. Yield: 8-10 servings. |
