Add the spinach to the skillet and heat it all the way through, about 5 minutes.
Turn off the heat and stir in both cheese until they melt. Set aside.
Spread the butter on all the slices of bread. Heat a small skillet on medium heat and add one slice of bread, butter side down.
Add half of the spinach and cheese mixture to the bread, keeping it on the bread. Top it with a slice of bread, butter side up.
Once the bread has become golden brown (about 2-5 minutes), carefully flip to the other side. Toast for another 2-5 minutes, until its golden brown.
Remove from the pan and repeat with the other sandwich.
