Preparation
Gather Your Ingredients
Collect all the ingredients needed for the Monteno Bacon recipe including bacon, Monteno cheese, fresh spinach, garlic powder, black pepper, and olive oil.
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). This will ensure that the bacon cooks evenly and becomes crispy.
Cooking
Cook the Bacon
In a large skillet over medium heat, add the bacon slices. Cook until crispy, about 6-8 minutes, flipping halfway through. Once done, transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.
Prepare the Spinach
In the same skillet with a little bit of bacon grease left, add the fresh spinach. Sauté for about 2-3 minutes until wilted. Remove from heat and set aside.
Layer the Ingredients
On a baking sheet, layer the cooked spinach, followed by the crispy bacon pieces, and then sprinkle the Monteno cheese on top.
Bake
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Serving
Serve Warm
Remove from the oven and let cool for a minute. Cut into squares or slices and serve warm as a delicious appetizer or side dish.
