How to Make Healthy Spinach Cheese Cakes

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
Roughly chop 10 oz (280g) fresh spinach. Pulse in a food processor in three batches until finely chopped.
Transfer the chopped spinach to a medium bowl.
Add 1 cup (225g) cottage cheese (or part-skim ricotta), 2 Laughing Cow cheese wedges (or ½ cup (40g) finely shredded parmesan cheese), 2 large eggs, 1 clove minced garlic, and salt and pepper to taste.
Gently stir all ingredients until well combined.
Coat a 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray.
Divide the spinach mixture evenly among the muffin cups, filling each almost to the top.
Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the spinach cakes are set and lightly golden brown.
Let the spinach cakes stand in the muffin tin for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy!
