Steps:

• Put a rimmed baking sheet in the oven and preheat to 450 degrees F.

Place the slices, mayo-side down, on a second rimmed baking sheet and spread evenly with the spinach filling, all the way to the edges. Top with the other 6 slices of bread. Spread the top slices with the remaining 1/4 cup mayonnaise. Carefully, remove the hot baking sheet from the oven and place it directly on top of the sandwiches.
