    Saute the garlic in 1/4 cup butter in a heavy saucepan over low heat until golden. Add the flour, stirring until smooth. Cook 1 minute, stirring constantly. Gradually add half-and-half, cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture is thickened and bubbly.
  • 2
    Stir in the bouillon granules and white pepper. Add 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese and 1/4 cup Romano cheese, stirring until the cheeses melt. Set aside, and keep warm.
  • 3
    Cook cannelloni shells according to the package directions; drain well, and set aside.
  • 4
    Saute the green onions in 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet, over medium heat until tender. Remove from the heat; add remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, remaining 1/4 cup Romano cheese, spinach, and remaining ingredients, stirring well.
