Ingredients List
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon flour
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 ounce cream cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup gruyere cheese
- 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup greek yogurt (I used 0%)
- 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 1/2 cup (about 5 ounces) frozen chopped spinach, thawed
- 1 (6.7 ounce) jar grilled artichoke hearts or you can sub marinated artichokes, chopped
- 8 slices thick sourdough or tuscan bread
- butter, for spreading
Directions
Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for a couple of minutes. Whisk in flour until it makes a paste. Cook over medium-low heat for a minute or two, add the milk then stir and cook one additional minute.
Add cream cheese, mozzarella, gruyere, parmesan and pepper. Stir until cheeses are melted. Stir in the greek yogurt until smooth. Chop artichokes and spinach and add to the sauce. Stir to combine.
Heat a skillet on medium-low heat. Butter the outsides of every bread slice, then spread a 2 tablespoons of the spinach and artichoke mixture on the non-buttered side of each slice. Top off with another slice of bread, buttered-side up. Cook until each side is golden and crisp and cheese is melted, then gently flip and do the same.
Slice and serve.
