Yummy Spinach Bread!

While I was home due to the recent snow and the kids being out of school, I tried a new bread recipe. Most every parent has a struggle getting their kids to eat green leafy vegetables. Here is a great way to hide some! This bread is very tasty. Actually, I could not taste the spinach in it, only the pepper. The texture is nice and even several days later, the inside is still tender and moist. This is also great for St. Patrick's Day since the bread is green!
