- Bring the toasted bread slices out of the oven. Spread the prepared butter over one side of each toasted bread slice.
- Spread a portion of the spinach mixture over half the bread slices. Sprinkle a portion of feta cheese, add a portion of mixed cheese, and cover with the remaining bread slices with the buttered side facing down. Place the sandwiches back in the preheated oven and bake for 5-6 minutes or till cheese melts.
- Cut the sandwiches in half, place them on a serving platter and serve immediately with wafers.
