Categories     Brunch, Dinner, Lunch, Supper

Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 10

100g chopped butternut squash
2 tsp olive oil
1 tbsp tamarind paste
160g bag baby spinach
2 thick slices of white bread
2 tbsp butter
2 tbsp grated mozzarella
1 tbsp grated cheddar
hot sauce
pinch allspice

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Tip the chopped butternut squash onto a tray and drizzle over the olive oil mixed with half the tamarind paste. Toss together and roast in the oven for 45 mins, or until soft.
  • Tip the baby spinach into a colander set over the sink, pour over boiling water until wilted, then leave to cool. Once cool enough to handle, squeeze out the excess water, then roughly chop. Take the slices of white bread and spread one with half the butter and the other side with a very thin layer of your remaining tamarind paste. Pile the spinach and cooked squash on top of the buttered side, then add the grated mozzarella and cheddar.
  • Dot with a splash of hot sauce, season and add a pinch allspice, then close the sandwich. Fry the sandwich in the rest of the butter for 3-4 mins each side or until the cheese has melted and the bread is golden.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 plum tomatoes, halved lengthwise
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
4 English muffins, split
2 1/2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 shallot or 1/4 red onion, thinly sliced
1/4 pound sliced Canadian bacon, cut into thin strips
8 cups baby spinach (about 8 ounces)
4 large eggs
1/3 cup shredded extra-sharp cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the broiler. Arrange the tomatoes cut-side up on one half of a rimmed baking sheet and season with salt and pepper. Broil the tomatoes until they begin to soften, about 2 minutes. Remove from the broiler. Arrange the English muffins on the other half of the baking sheet and brush with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Set aside.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the shallot and cook, stirring, until soft, about 2 minutes. Add the Canadian bacon and cook, stirring, until lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Stir in the spinach until wilted; season with salt and pepper. Transfer the mixture to a bowl; keep warm. Wipe out the skillet.
  • Heat the remaining 1/2 tablespoon olive oil in the skillet over medium-high heat. Crack the eggs into the pan, season with salt and pepper, and fry until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny, about 5 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat. Top the tomatoes with the cheese. Return the tomatoes and English muffins to the broiler; broil until the cheese is melted, 2 to 3 minutes. Divide the English muffins among plates, then top each with some of the spinach mixture and a fried egg. Serve with the broiled tomatoes.

Time 1h5m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 tablespoons olive oil, divided, or as needed
1 (2 pound) spaghetti squash, halved and seeded
¼ teaspoon kosher salt, or to taste
⅛ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, or to taste
4 cloves garlic, unpeeled
1 teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon dried basil
½ teaspoon dried oregano
½ teaspoon dried parsley
1 cup chopped fresh spinach
6 tablespoons shredded mozzarella cheese, divided
6 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese, divided

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Drizzle olive oil over the cut side of the spaghetti squash. Season with salt and black pepper. Place cut-side down on a baking sheet. Place unpeeled garlic on a piece of aluminum foil. Drizzle with olive oil. Wrap aluminum foil around garlic, and place onto baking sheet next to the squash.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until squash is tender and easily pierced with a fork, 40 to 45 minutes. Allow squash and garlic to rest until cool enough to handle. Leave the oven on.
  • Peel garlic and squeeze cloves into a large bowl. Smash with a fork until smooth. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil, onion powder, basil, oregano, and parsley. Mix into a paste.
  • Use a fork to scrape out spaghetti squash strands into the bowl, reserving the shells. Toss spaghetti squash strands with the garlic paste until thoroughly coated. Mix in spinach, 1/4 cup mozzarella cheese, and 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese; toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Fill each reserved spaghetti squash shell evenly with the filling. Sprinkle remaining mozzarella and Parmesan over the top. Return the filled shells to the baking sheet.
  • Bake until cheeses melt, 7 to 10 minutes. Turn on broiler and broil until cheeses begin to brown and bubble, 3 to 5 minutes. Serve immediately.

Time 16m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 slice American cheese (or whatever kind you prefer)
2 slices tomatoes
6 spinach leaves, torn in half (more or less, you decide, I like a lot!!)
2 slices white bread (or whatever kind you prefer, if you use large slices you may need to add more ingredients)
1 tablespoon margarine or 1 tablespoon butter
1 dash salt
1 dash garlic powder

Steps:

  • spray frying pan with cooking spray.
  • Turn stove on to medium heat, and add tomatoes to outside edges of pan, and add spinach to center.
  • Sprinkle salt and garlic over the vegetables.
  • Toss spinach frequently, and turn tomatoes over after a minute or so.
  • cook tomato just until it gets a little soft, but do not wait until it gets mushy.
  • Cook spinach until slightly wilted.
  • Take both out when they are done and set aside.
  • Wipe pan out with towel, and heat on medium.
  • Butter one piece of bread as you would for a regular grilled cheese sandwich.
  • Put bread in pan, and place cheese on top and then place spinach and tomato on top of the cheese.
  • Allow to heat.
  • Butter the other piece of bread, and fry sandwich until nicely browned on both sides.
  • Remove and Serve!

Tips:

  • For a crispy sandwich, use a heavy-bottomed skillet or griddle over medium heat.
  • Spread the butter or oil evenly on the bread slices to ensure even browning.
  • Place the sandwich in the skillet or griddle and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted and gooey.
  • If you're using a toaster oven, toast the sandwich for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
  • For a vegetarian version, omit the bacon and use sliced avocado or roasted eggplant instead.
  • For a vegan version, use vegan cheese and butter or oil.
  • Serve the sandwich immediately with your favorite sides, such as soup, salad, or fruit.
