Spinach & Feta Baguette

Over these festive times, I will not be posting very often. We are so busy in and around the house, preparing for the family to come and visit and to make use of the time of the holidays where we are all together, that documenting our meals is way down on the priorities list! However, I will be posting every now and then, and hopefully it will be just as delicious as you expect.

Yesterday I made this Spinach & Feta Baguette. It was sooo delicious, even Baby liked it! These quantities makes enough for 5 people.

Ingredients

2x Deeghuys French Loaves, defrosted
1 onion, chopped
2tbs butter
250g cut spinach
salt & pepper to taste
pinch nutmeg
1 rind plain feta
3tbs mayonnaise

Method

Preheat the oven to 160degrees C. Melt 1tbs butter and brush the loaves with the butter.

Cut diagonal lines onto the bread, spaced as thick as you want your slices (1 1/2cm - 2cm), and about 3-5mm deep. 

  Bake in the oven for 20min. Take out, brush again with butter. 

Put back in the oven for another 10 - 15 min. Take out of the oven and let it cool down a little.

 I chopped the onion in the Veri-Mark special chopper thingy, which came in handy a little later on. Melt the butter and fry the onion until lightly browned. Add the spinach. This was fresh store-bought pre-cut spinach, which I just washed again. Add the salt, pepper and nutmeg. Fry until the spinach starts frying too. 

Scoop the whole mixture into the chopper thingy, Add the feta, crumbed, and add the mayonnaise. Blend well.

Cut the bread along the cuts you already made before baking. Lightly spread with butter. If you wish, you can spread a thin layer of Dijon Mustard or hot English mustard for a little kick. Scoop the Spinach & Feta mixture over... 

...And Enjoy!!
