AMAZING SPINACH ARTICHOKE CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Place garlic cloves in a small oven-safe dish, and roast in the preheated oven until softened and fragrant, about 20 minutes. Set roasted garlic cloves aside to cool.
• Place the spinach in a large mixing bowl, and stir in the artichoke hearts.
• Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat, and cook and stir the mushrooms until softened, about 10 minutes. Mix in the green onions, and cook and stir until onions are soft, about 5 more minutes. Transfer the mushrooms, green onions, and butter from the skillet into the bowl with spinach mixture.
• Remove cream cheese from wrapping, place into a microwave-safe bowl, and cook in the microwave until warm and very soft, about 1 1/2 minutes. Stir the softened cream cheese into the spinach mixture, and add the sour cream, water chestnuts, Parmesan cheese, mayonnaise, garlic salt, and lemon juice. Squeeze the roasted garlic out of the garlic skins, and mix thoroughly into the spinach mixture. Spoon the casserole into a round 2-quart baking dish.

COPYCAT PANERA BREAD SPINACH & ARTICHOKE SOUFFLé

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Grease 4 round ramekins with cooking spray and place on a baking sheet, set aside.
• Set a saucepan over medium heat with the butter. Once melted, whisk in the flour and cook for about 30 seconds. Whisk in the milk and cook, stirring often, until the sauce has thickened. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool slightly.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the spinach artichoke dip, eggs, the cooled milk sauce, Monterey jack cheese, Romano cheese, garlic, pepper flakes and hot sauce until well combined.
• Unwrap the puff pastry and cut the sheet into four squares. Place a square in each ramekin, pressing it down onto the bottom and up the sides of each ramekin. Divide the soufflé mixture between the ramekins.
• Bake until puffed up and deep golden brown, about 25 to 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.

SPINACH SOUFFLE

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, combine the spinach and flour.
• Add in the eggs, salt, cottage cheese, cheddar cheese, and butter.
• Transfer mixture to a greased 13x9 inch baking dish.
• Bake, covered, in a 375 degree oven for 45 minutes.
• Uncover and bake an additional 15 minutes.

SPINACH EGG SOUFFLE

Steps:

• Preheat over to 350.
• If you don't have cooked spinach, you can quickly zap one of Green Giants "no sauce" frozen spinach packages while you begin your preparations.
• Grease 8"x8" glass dish (or souffle dish if you have one) - I use softened butter for this.
• Separate your eggs putting your white in a bowl to be blended and the yolks set aside for later.
• I typically microwave the milk for 2 minutes to heat it which makes the stove time shorter.
• Grate your onion (you want to grate versus chop for 2 reasons: one is texture and the other is that grated onion infuses the flavor better than chopped).
• Melt your butter over medium/medium-low heat in a 10" non-stick skillet.
• Once melted, add the flour stirring constantly until you have a thick even consistency.
• Add the milk and seasonings stirring constantly until thickened and even - if you've preheated the milk this part will go fairly quickly, if not - it will take a few minutes.
• Stir in the onion and spinach until evenly distributed and smooth.
• Remove pan from heat and quickly stir in the yokes.
• Once completely mixed, pour contents of pan into large glass bowl and set aside.
• Mix egg whites until they form stiff peaks.
• Add 1/3 of whites mixture to the yolk/spinach mix and stir gently - the whites should make the other mixture lighter and fluffier.
• Fold in remaining whites and gentle pour or spoon mixture into greased pan.
• Cook until browned on top (about 30 minutes) - eat immediately (It will fall the longer it sits - it still tastes as good but won't look as pretty).
• ***To make a Cheese Souffle instead, swap the onion and spinach out for 1 cup of shredded cheese. I've used baby swiss, a colby/jack mix -- anything will work - it's a taste preference.

BAKED SPINACH AND ARTICHOKE TOASTS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a sheet pan with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat (such as Silpat®).
• Cut bread into 1/2-inch slices. Transfer onto the prepared sheet and brush very generously with melted butter until well soaked.
• Bake in the preheated oven until light golden brown, about 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool before topping. Increase the oven temperature to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• Add cream cheese, Gruyere, provolone, 1/4 cup Parmigiano-Reggiano, garlic, green onion, pepper, salt, cayenne, nutmeg, spinach, and artichokes to a mixing bowl and mix until thoroughly combined.
• Use a spoon to top each piece of toast with at least a 1/2-inch thick layer of the cheese, artichoke, and spinach mixture. Grate some extra Parmigiano-Reggiano on top of each toast if desired.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the tops and bottoms are nicely browned, about 25 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.
