Number of Servings:
Ingredients:
- 2 teaspoons - olive oil plus more for baking dish
- 1 whole - medium onion diced
- 2 cloves - garlic minced
- 2 pounds - spinach cleaned, trimmed, and coarsely chopped
- 1/2 cups - milk
- 6 ounces - reduced-fat bar cream cheese
- 3 dashes - Worcestershire sauce
- 3 dashes - Tabasco sauce or other hot sauce
- 3/4 cups - mozzarella shredded
- - coarse salt and ground pepper
- - baguette slices, breadsticks, or crackers
Directions:
STEP 1
Preheat oven to 425 degrees. In a Dutch oven or large pot, heat oil over medium. Add onion and garlic; cook until lightly browned, 5 to 8 minutes.
STEP 2
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.
STEP 3
In the same pot, warm milk over high heat. Whisk in cream cheese until melted, about 3 minutes. 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.
STEP 4
Bake until bubbly and golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Serve hot with accompaniments, as desired.
