Recipe Introduction
4 Sandwiches; 5 Points per serving
List of Ingredients
10-oz package frozen chopped spinach,
thawed and squeezed dry
1/4 cup coarsely chopped black olives
1/4 cup nonfat or light mayonnaise
3 Tbsp crumbled reduced-fat feta
cheese with sun-dried tomatoes and herbs
8 slices firm multigrain, pumpernickel,
or dark rye bread or 4 multigrain burger buns
12 thin slices plum tomato
3/4 cup alfalfa or spicy sprouts
4 oz thinly sliced reduced-fat provolone or Swiss cheese
2 Tbsp Dijon mustard
Recipe
Place spinach in a large nonstick skillet and place over
medium heat. Cook, stirring frequently, until the spinach
is heated through and any excess liquid has evaporated.
Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in first the
olives and mayonnaise, and then the feta cheese.
To assemble the sandwiches, place a quarter of the spinach
mixture on each of four bread slices. Top the spinach on
each bread slice with a quarter of the tomatoes, sprouts,
and cheese. Spread the remaining 4 bread slices with some
of the mustard and place on the sandwiches.
Place each sandwich on a microwave-safe plate and cover
with a paper towel. Microwave at high power for about
30 seconds, just until the cheese is melted. Serve hot.
