Health benefits of Spinach and Artichoke Pull-Apart Bread

Spinach is a nutrient-dense leafy green vegetable that is rich in vitamins A, C, and K, as well as iron, magnesium, and antioxidants. The high iron content in spinach helps combat anemia, which is common in women with PCOS. Magnesium helps reduce inflammation and improve insulin sensitivity. The antioxidants in spinach can help lower oxidative stress, which is beneficial for managing PCOS symptoms. Including spinach in your diet can support overall health and well-being.

Ingredients

1 package frozen chopped spinach
1 14 oz. can artichoke hearts
1 loaf crusty bread, like Sourdough
1 c. mayonnaise
1 c. grated Parmesan
2 c. shredded mozzarella

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
In medium bowl, thaw frozen spinach according to package's instructions. Turn spinach out onto kitchen towel and roll it up—then squeeze out excess water. Return to bowl. Chop artichoke hearts and add to spinach.
Slice top of bread long-ways and then cross-ways, being careful not to cut loaf all the way through.
Gently open cuts of loaf, and spread insides with mayonnaise. Fill cuts with spinach and artichoke mixture, tucking vegetables deeply into cuts. Sprinkle cuts with grated Parmesan and shredded mozzarella, making sure cheeses get into the cuts and coat the top of the loaf.
Move loaf to sheet pan, and bake for 20 minutes, until cheese is melted. Serve immediately.
