Whole Wheat Spinach Bread


I found a recipe for this bread a couple weeks ago. It wasn't an artisan loaf like I usually make. Instead, it was a soft squishy sandwich loaf. It looks a little like rye bread and doesn't have a very strong spinach taste. It's more of a wholesome wheat bread flavor with a slight vegetable aftertaste. It's a pretty tasty all purpose bread.
