Eggs Florentine en croute

Ingredients

1 loaf of unsliced, whole wheat or
whole grain bread.
1/4 cup of melted butter, margarine or
Earth Balance.
1 pkg. (8 oz) frozen, creamed spinach
4 eggs
Salt and pepper to taste

How we make it

Slice crusts off of loaf of bread.
Cut trimmed loaf into 4 equal slices.
Scoop out the center of each slice, leaving
a shell about 1/2 thick.
Brush inside and outside of shell with the
butter, margarine or Earth Balance.
Bake in a pre-heated oven at 400 degrees F
for about 15 to 20 minutes or until golden
brown and slightly "crusty".
Heat spinach according to package directions.
Drop eggs into salted simmering water (or use
an egg poacher) and cook until whites are set.
Place bread shells on serving plates.
Fill each shell with hot, creamed spinach and
top with a poached egg. Lightly salt and pepper
and serve at once.
