Ingredients

• 16 oz fresh spinach
• 14 oz artichoke hearts (canned, drained, and chopped)
• 8 oz cream cheese (softened)
• 1 cup sour cream
• 1 cup mayonnaise
• 3 cloves garlic (minced)
• 1 cup parmesan cheese (grated)
• 1 cup mozzarella cheese (shredded)
• 1 tsp Italian seasoning
• 0.5 tsp salt
• 0.25 tsp black pepper
• 0.5 cup panko breadcrumbs
• 2 tbsp unsalted butter (melted)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

In a large skillet, cook the spinach over medium heat until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Remove the spinach, let it cool slightly, and then squeeze out excess moisture. Chop the spinach roughly and set aside.

Step 3

In a large bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, minced garlic, parmesan cheese, and mozzarella cheese until smooth and well combined.

Step 4

Add the chopped spinach, chopped artichoke hearts, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper to the cheese mixture. Stir until evenly mixed.

Step 5

Grease a 9x9-inch casserole dish or similar-sized baking dish. Spread the spinach and artichoke mixture evenly into the dish.

Step 6

In a small bowl, combine the panko breadcrumbs and melted butter. Stir until the breadcrumbs are evenly coated.

Step 7

Sprinkle the buttered breadcrumbs evenly over the top of the casserole.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbling and the breadcrumb topping is golden brown.

Step 9

Let the casserole cool for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy your creamy and delicious spinach and artichoke casserole!
