SPINACH ARTICHOKE CALZONES

Steps:

• Coat a baking sheet and some plastic wrap with the cooking spray. Place the rolls on the baking sheet and cover with the plastic wrap. Let thaw and rise for 2 to 3 hours.
• Meanwhile, make the filling: Place the spinach in a kitchen towel and wring dry. Put in a large bowl, separating any clumps. Add the artichokes, mozzarella, ricotta, Parmesan and heavy cream and stir until combined. Season with pepper.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Roll out each dinner roll on a lightly floured surface into a 5-inch round. Spoon 1/4 cup of the filling on half of each dough round. Dampen the edges of the rounds with water, then fold the dough over the filling to enclose, pressing the edges to seal.
• Arrange the calzones on 2 baking sheets lined with parchment paper. Bake until golden brown, 10 to 13 minutes.
• Serve the calzones with the warmed marinara sauce for dipping, and a salad.

CHEESY SPINACH AND ARTICHOKE PINWHEELS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly oil a pie plate or coat with nonstick spray. In a large bowl, combine artichoke hearts, spinach, sour cream, mayonnaise, garlic powder and onion powder; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Stir in mozzarella and Parmesan. Unroll crescent rolls, pressing perforations to seal into approximately a 13×18-inch rectangle. Top with artichoke mixture. Starting at the shortest side, roll up, pressing the edges to seal. Cut in eighths. Place, cut side down, onto the prepared pie plate. Brush with egg. Place into oven and bake until golden brown, about 20-25 minutes. Serve immediately, garnished with parsley, if desired.

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.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the casserole is hot and bubbly, about 30 minutes. Spread French-fried onion rings over the top, return to the oven, and bake until the onion rings are lightly browned, 5 to 10 more minutes.

SPINACH ARTICHOKE CALZONES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
• Combine first 7 ingredients in a bowl. Roll each pizza dough out on a cookie sheet, and halve each cross-wise. Spread 1/2 cup mozzarella and up to 1/4 of filling on each rectangle. Work on just half of the surface of each rectangle of dough, then fold dough over top of filling and pinch edges firmly to seal. For a half-moon "pizza parlor" look to your calzones, mound filling into a half-moon shape, fold dough over top trim edges of dough to follow the rounded shape, then seal edges.
• Tie strips of dough scraps in knots, brush with garlic oil and sprinkle with grated cheese. Bake knots with calzones.
• If your dough tears, remove a little of the filling and repair. Repeat the process, spacing the calzones evenly on baking sheet. Bake the calzones for 12 to 15 minutes or until golden brown all over. Serve calzones with warm tomato or pizza sauce for dunking.
• Cook's Note: Freeze any remaining filling in a small plastic container and use it to stuff a chicken breast on another day.
• Add olive oil to medium saucepan over moderate heat. Add garlic and crushed pepper to the heated olive oil; when pepper snaps and garlic sizzles, stir in crushed tomatoes. Season sauce with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Cook for five minutes and stir in parsley. Serve.
• Yield: 4 servings

SPINACH-ARTICHOKE SCONES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Whisk one egg and set aside for egg wash.
• Whisk flour, baking powder, salt, garlic powder, and baking soda together in a large bowl. Cut in butter with a pastry blender or 2 forks until crumbly. Add spinach, Cheddar cheese, and artichoke hearts and stir briefly to combine.
• Whisk the remaining egg into the milk; add to the flour mixture and mix until well combined. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and roll to a thickness of 1/2 inch. Cut out 10 scones.
• Place scones on the prepared baking sheet. Brush with egg wash.
• Bake in the prepared oven until nicely browned, 15 to 20 minutes.

THE BEST SPINACH ARTICHOKE DIP

Steps:

• Position a rack in the upper third of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Spray a 1-quart baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
• Put the cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise and garlic in a large bowl. Mix vigorously until combined and smooth. (If you prefer, you can use a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment.) Add the spinach to the cream cheese mixture, breaking it up as you add it. Add the artichokes, mozzarella and 1/2 cup of the Parmesan, mixing to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and top with the remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan.
• Bake until the dip begins to bubble, 20 to 25 minutes. Turn the oven to broil and continue to cook, keeping an eye on it so it doesn't burn, until the top is golden brown, about 5 minutes. Serve warm with crackers, chips or toasted bread.

SPINACH ARTICHOKE DIP

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• Mix together Parmesan cheese, spinach, and artichoke hearts.
• Combine remaining ingredients and mix with spinach mixture.
• Bake for 20-30 minutes.
• Serve with crackers or toasted bread.

SPINACH ARTICHOKE DIP

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a medium pot over medium heat. Add garlic and cook, stirring until it's softened and fragrant, about 30 seconds.
• Add spinach to pot one handful at a time, letting each handful completely wilt before adding the next. Add crushed red pepper, if using, and season with salt and pepper. Continue to cook, stirring frequently, until most of the liquid from the spinach has evaporated (no need to drain), about 3 minutes. Add artichokes and season with salt and pepper. Cook for a few minutes, just to take the raw edge off the artichokes.
• Reduce heat to low and add cream cheese and mozzarella. Using a wooden spoon or spatula, stir until all the cheese has melted, about 3 minutes. Stir in sour cream and pecorino, and season with more salt and pepper. You can certainly eat this dip straight from the pot (or transferred to a serving bowl), but running it under the broiler for a crispy top is also an excellent option. To do so, transfer dip to a small ovenproof skillet (6 to 8 inches). Place in oven and broil until the top is golden and the dip is bubbling, 5 to 8 minutes. Let sit a minute or two before serving.
