  4. Clean and roughly chop 10 ounces fresh spinach.
  5. Layer the sliced onion, minced garlic, drained beans, and chopped spinach in the bottom of your crock-pot.
  6. Pour 2 cups of chicken broth over the ingredients, ensuring the spinach is fully submerged.

  8. Season generously with 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, 1 teaspoon dried rosemary, and 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning.
  9. Sprinkle 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese over the chicken.
  10. Cook on low for 6-8 hours, or until the chicken is cooked through and the flavors have melded.
  11. Serve over toasted garlic bread (see optional garlic bread recipe below). Garnish with extra Parmesan cheese and a fresh salad with sliced cantaloupe on the side.
