# Helpful Tips:

01 -
  • The combination of tangy artichokes and creamy cheese hits every craving at once
  • It comes together in just 15 minutes of prep time but tastes like you spent forever on it
  • Leftovers reheat beautifully for lunch the next day, if you somehow have any
02 -
  • Squeezing every last drop of water from the thawed spinach is non-negotiable. I wrap it in paper towels and twist until my hands hurt.
  • Serving this immediately from the oven yields the best texture, but it stays warm for about 30 minutes if you need to transport it.
03 -
  • Use a shallow baking dish instead of a deep one. More surface area means more golden, bubbly cheese on top.
  • Broil for the last 2 minutes if you want extra crispy, browned cheese edges.
