Variations & Tips<\/b><\/div>\n
For a more robust flavor, try adding some saut\u00e9ed mushrooms or caramelized onions to the filling. If you have picky eaters, you can substitute the spinach with finely chopped kale or arugula. For a spicier kick, include a sprinkle of red pepper flakes or a few slices of jalape\u00f1o. To make it even more protein-rich, add some cooked chicken or turkey slices.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n
