Tips
*Spinach that is in a package and labeled as "ready to eat" or "washed" does not need to be washed before eating. Spinach that is not packaged does need to be rinsed under running water before eating.
Basil leaves can be substituted for part of the spinach leaves.
You can substitute 2 large tomatoes for the cherry tomatoes. Remove the seeds and cut into quarters before roasting.
