Dump Spinach and Artichoke Dip

 

Everything goes into a baking dish and straight into the oven all at once-even the frozen spinach and artichokes. Finish the dish with panko and a quick run under the broiler. Serve with sturdy chips or baguette slices.

Ingredients:

• 2 tablespoons EVO
• 2 heaping cups frozen artichoke quarters
• One 8-ounce cream cheese
• 2 heaping cups frozen chopped spinach
• 1 cup Havarti cheese, grated
• 1 cup mozzrella, grated
• 1/4 cup heavy cream
• 1/3 cup mayonnaise
• 1 garlic clove, grated
• crushed red pepper to taste
• 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• 1/4 cup panko

Directions:

Preheat oven to 400-degrees.

Drizzle a 2-quart baking dish bottom with EVO.

Scatter the articokes over the oil, set the cream cheese in the center and top with the spinach.

Sprinkle the havarti and mozzarella and top with heavy cream, mayonnaise, crushed red pepper and garlic.

Sprinkle with Parmesan.

Bake until browned and bubbling, 33-36 minutes.

Preheat the broiler.

Use a pair of kitchen scissors to cut the artichokes and spinach into small pieces. Stir the dip with the scissors until creamy and smooth.

Sprinkle with panko and broil about 1 minute.
