"Tartine" is a bread with either a sweet or savory spread on top, often found in France. It sounds fancy, but it's basically an open-faced sandwich.

Ingredients

6 oz soft tofu, drained
6-9 cloves roasted garlic (I say the more garlic the better, but if you're not a garlic lover like I am, go with 6 cloves)
1 1/2 tsp olive oil
10 oz sliced crimini mushrooms
1 yellow onion, diced
6oz-10oz fresh baby spinach
1 Tbs freshly grated Parmesan cheese per tartine (so if you're making 12 tartines, that's 12 Tbsp total)
1 whole-wheat baguette, sliced lengthwise and toasted

Directions

Roast the garlic. This is very easy to do: simply trim the tops of whole garlic bulbs to expose the cloves, set on a piece of foil, and drizzle with olive oil (about 1 tsp).
Wrap the garlic tightly in foil, and bake 30 to 35 minutes at 400 F, or until garlic bulbs are soft.
Place tofu and garlic in blender or food processor, season with salt and pepper, and blend until smooth.
Heat oil in skillet over medium heat. Saute mushroom and onion 3 to 5 minutes, or until softened.
Stir in spinach, and saute 2 minutes, or until wilted. Add 1 Tbs Parmesan cheese to pan, and remove from heat. You can also add salt and pepper to taste for more flavor.
If you have any roasted garlic left over, spread one clove over each baguette half. Top with tofu-garlic spread, then with mushroom-spinach mixture, and sprinkle with remaining Parmesan cheese. Toast under broiler 1 to 2 minutes, or until cheese begins to brown. Add a bit of salt and pepper on top (just a sprinkle) for extra flavor.
