Ham and Mozzarella Melts with Sauteed Spinach [Recipe]

When Real Simple asked me to blog about one of their simple, Month of Dinners, I jumped at the chance. These Ham and Mozzarella Melts with Spinach was made in less than 20 minutes!

I’m so glad I chose this meal the night I did because I got the dreaded call from my husband saying he was working late. I already worked that day and was helping Big A with her homework, while taming Little D’s meltdown (from no nap) and trying to figure out how I was also going to bathe these kids and get them to bed at a decent time.

This meal was perfect (I also served with some red grapes). The kids loved it and it was super low stress.

Don’t miss the other bloggers and the super simple meals they tried out. You can catch Monday’s meal on Simply Stated, Month of Dinners. For quick lunch ideas, go here.

Thanks, Real Simple!

    Thanks for the recipe. I have some picky eaters in my family but this seems like something they would like.
