Notes
• Use sturdy bread slices that can support the spinach and cheese without bending.
• Cook off excess spinach liquid before assembling. Avoid transferring watery pan juices onto the bread.
• Choose a cheese that melts well and check that it is made with vegetarian rennet.
• For a crisper base, lightly toast the bread before adding the toppings. Allow additional time if using this option.
• Check near the end of baking and remove when the cheese is melted and the bread is lightly crisp.
• Serve immediately with the cherry tomatoes alongside. Soup or salad can be added for a larger meal.
