From the Test Kitchen

Inspired by the flavors of spanakopita—a beloved Greek dish of flaky phyllo dough filled with spinach and feta—this delicious grilled cheese is filled with the same classic duo, plus scallions, monterey jack, and a bit of hot sauce for a tangy kick.

Wash and dry the fresh produce. Thinly slice the scallions. Peel and roughly chop 2 cloves of garlic. Thinly slice the monterey jack.

Make the filling
2 Make the filling

In a medium pan (nonstick, if you have one), heat a drizzle of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the sliced scallions and chopped garlic; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, 2 to 3 minutes, or until softened. Add the spinach; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, 1 to 2 minutes, or until wilted. Turn off the heat; stir in the feta (crumbling before adding) and as much of the hot sauce as you’d like, depending on how spicy you’d like the dish to be. Taste, then season with salt and pepper if desired.

In the same pan, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil on medium until hot. Add the sandwiches. Loosely cover the pan with foil and cook 2 to 4 minutes per side, or until lightly browned and the cheese is melted (if the pan seems dry, add a drizzle of olive oil before flipping). Transfer to a cutting board; immediately season with salt. Carefully halve on an angle. Enjoy!
