Creamed Spinach Garlic Bread

Sure, you could have regular old garlic bread.

Yes, it is warm, garlicky, and of course, buttery.

But why not throw some creamed spinach into the mix, creating a garlic bread with a creamy, spicy base that also gives you a Popeye’s dose of spinach?!

Everyone loves creamed spinach, but when you layer creamed spinach on crunchy bread, add a kick of garlic and smother the top in cheese, you will not just be in love, you will be obsessed.

And that's okay, because this recipe is easy, and best of all, you can say you had your greens today!

Granted, your greens were smothered in cheese and garlic, but hey, it's still spinach!

I'm not going to take that away from you.
