Country-Style Spinach Crostini

In a frying pan over medium heat, warm the olive oil. Add the prosciutto and green onions and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute. Raise the heat to high, add the spinach and sauté until barely wilted, 2-3 minutes. Transfer to a colander to drain, pressing against the spinach with a spoon to remove any excess liquid. Let cool. Preheat a broiler (or a grill).

In a bowl, whisk the egg until blended. Whisk in the Parmesan cheese and cream until well mixed. Season to taste with salt, white pepper and nutmeg. Add the spinach mixture and stir until blended.

Toast the bread until golden. Using a slotted spoon to drain off any excess liquid, arrange the spinach mixture on top of the toasted bread slices, dividing it evenly and making sure all edges of the toasts are covered to prevent burning. Lay a slice of cheese on top of each toast. Place on a rack in a broiler pan and broil (grill) until the cheese has just melted, 1-2 minutes.

Transfer to a platter and serve immediately.
