Category: Bruschetta, Crostini and Canapes
    Prep Time:       Cook Time:       Total Time:  

2 tbsp olive oil
3 tbsp finely chopped prosciutto
2 tbsp chopped green onions
1 lb spinach, stems removed and chopped
1 large egg
2 tbsp grated parmesan cheese
1 tbsp heavy cream
Salt and ground white pepper
Freshly grated nutmeg
8 slices bread cut into 1/2 inch thick slices
2 oz Swiss or Emmenthaler cheese, cut into 8 slices

In a frying pan, warm oil. Add prosciutto and onions; saute until fragrant, about 1 minutes. Raise the heat to high and add the spinach. Saute until barely wilted, 2-3 minutes. Transfer to a colander to drain, pressing against the spinach to remove excess liquid. Let cool.

Preheat broiler or grill. In a bowl, whisk the eggs until blended. Add the parmesan and cream until well mixed. Season to taste with seasonings. Add spinach mixture and stir until blended. Toast the bread until golden.

Using a slotted spoon to drain off any excel liquid, arrange the spinach mixture on top of the toasted bread slices, dividing evenly and making sure all edges of the toasts are covered to prevent burning. Lay a slice of cheese on top of each toast.

Place on a rack in a broiler pan and broil/grill until cheese has melted, 1-2 minutes. Transfer to platter to serve.
