Ingredients

  • 1 15 ounce baby spinach
  • 3 Tablespoon Olive oil

  • ¾ Cup Mayonnaise
  • 1 Cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 Cup Parmesan Cheese
  • ¼ Cup Milk
  • ¼ Teaspoon Red Pepper Flakes
  • 1 Artichoke Hearts NOT the marinated variety

Instructions

  1. I took help from my food processor and pulsed the spinach until it was finely chopped.  If you don't have a food processor, a sharp knife and cutting board will work as well.
    1 15 ounce baby spinach
  2. In a hot pan with a small drizzle of olive oil, sauté the spinach until it is wilted and the moisture comes out of the spinach.
    3 Tablespoon Olive oil
  3. Remove from the heat and allow to cool.
  4. Using a clean cloth or several layers of paper towels, squeeze out the excess moisture.
  5. In a mixing bowl, cream together the softened cream cheese, mayonnaise, mozzarella cheese, milk and red pepper flakes.
    1 8 oz. Cream Cheese, ¾ Cup Mayonnaise, 1 Cup shredded mozzarella cheese, ¼ Cup Milk, ¼ Teaspoon Red Pepper Flakes, 1 Cup Parmesan Cheese
  6. Chop up the artichoke hearts.
    1 Artichoke Hearts
  7. Using the flat side of your knife smash your roasted garlic.
    2 cloves Roasted Garlic
  8. Add the spinach and garlic to the cream cheese/mayo/milk mixture and stir to combine.
  9. Bake at 400 for 20 minutes or until hot, bubbly and golden brown.
