Spiced Spinach Bread

As regular readers of the blog would know, there aren't many things I rate more highly than bread (schnauzers, maybe?). I'm always looking for new ways to eat it, and this recipe makes a lovely, spicy bread that sure beats the experience of sitting on your bed, alone, eating dry toast (no judgement). Add extra spices if you desire, serve with dinner or eat on its own. It could easily be made gluten free, too, so what are you waiting for?
