Ingredients
-
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
-
¼ cup chopped shallot
-
1 (11 ounce) package baby spinach
-
2 teaspoons chopped fresh dill
-
2 teaspoons chopped fresh parsley
-
1 clove garlic, grated
-
¼ teaspoon ground pepper
-
½ cup part-skim ricotta cheese
-
6 tablespoons crumbled feta cheese
-
4 slices provolone cheese
-
8 slices whole-wheat sandwich bread
-
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
Directions
-
Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large nonstick pan over medium-high heat. Add shallot and cook, stirring often, until softened, about 1 minute. Add spinach in batches and cook, stirring, until wilted, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in dill, parsley, garlic and pepper. Cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Transfer the spinach mixture to a large mixing bowl. Stir in ricotta and feta.
-
Divide provolone among 4 bread slices. Top each with about 1/2 cup of the spinach mixture and another slice of bread.
-
Wipe the pan clean. Heat 1 1/2 teaspoons oil and 1 tablespoon butter over medium heat until the butter is melted. Add 2 sandwiches and cook until crispy and browned, about 3 minutes. Turn and continue cooking until the cheese has melted, adjusting the heat as necessary, about 2 minutes more. Repeat with the remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons oil, 1 tablespoon butter and 2 sandwiches. Serve immediately.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.
* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
