Spinach Garlic Bread
Ingredients
- 4 cups baby spinach leaves, stemmed
- 4 cloves garlic, cracked from skin
- 1 stick softened butter
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1 cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese

Preheat broiler or oven to 400F.
Place the spinach in a food processor with garlic, butter, salt, freshly ground black pepper and cheese, and process until smooth.
