Caloriesper servingIngredients
- 2 teaspoons olive oil, plus more for baking dish
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 pounds spinach, cleaned, trimmed, and coarsely chopped
- 0.5 cup milk
- 6 ounces reduced-fat bar cream cheese
- 3 dashes Worcestershire sauce
- 3 dashes hot sauce, such as Tabasco
- 0.75 cup shredded mozzarella
- Coarse salt and ground pepper
- Baguette slices, breadsticks, or crackers, for serving
Instructions
- 1Preheat oven; cook onion and garlic: Preheat oven to 425°F. In a Dutch oven or large pot, heat oil over medium. Add onion and garlic; cook until lightly browned, 5 to 8 minutes.
- 2Add spinach in two parts and wilt; drain: Add spinach in two additions, letting the first batch wilt before adding the next; cook until completely wilted, 5 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a colander; drain, pressing to release all excess liquid.
- 3Warm milk; add cream cheese: In the same pot, warm milk over high heat. Whisk in cream cheese until melted, about 3 minutes.
- 4Add spinach and remaining ingredients; transfer to baking dish: Add spinach, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, and 1/4 cup mozzarella; stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Pour into a lightly oiled 1 1/2-quart shallow baking dish; sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup mozzarella.
- 5Bake: Bake until bubbly and golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Serve hot with accompaniments, as desired.
