Default Spanakopita Grilled Cheese Sandwich

Spinach and feta, right up my alley! I saw this on 'My Greek Table' on
one of my PBS stations. Make a filling as for spanakopita.
But instead of fussing with sheets of phyllo dough, use the filling to
make grilled cheese" sandwiches. Place the filling on one slice of
sourdough bread. Top with another slice of bread. Drizzle a little
olive oil in a nice hot skillet and add the sandwich. Cook until golden
brown on one side, turn it carefully and brown the other side. The
cheese in the filling will be nicely melted. Sounds like a plan!

That sounds great! I've even got some spinach in the freezer.

That does sound good but I'd have to buy some sourdough bread. No problem!

Real sourdough bread or supermarket "sourdough" bread?

It really does! Yep, she mentioned you can use frozen spinach. Of
course after you cook the minced onion until soft and add the spinach
and cook it down, fresh or frozen, you'll want to let the excess
moisture drain a bit in a strainer. Spinach extrudes a lot of liquid.
She said "Don't want a soggy grilled sandwich!"

I'm assuming the sourdough bread I buy in the store is the real thing. It
molds quick enough.

If it has an ingredient list and the list mentions yeast, it's fake
sourdough.
