    this is delicious. my kids loved it, guess its because of the crunch. I topped the spinach with pinenuts. btw, i had this as starter, served in small muffin size bites and my guests loved it too.

    This was very tasty and easy to make. I used gruyère because there was no fontina for sale in the supermarket.
