Spinach And Artichoke Cups Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F.
• Place 1 wonton wrapper in each of 24 mini muffin pan cups sprayed with cooking spray, with edges of wrapper extending over top of cup. Bake 5 min. Meanwhile, combine remaining ingredients.
• Spoon artichoke mixture into wonton cups.
• Bake 12 to 14 min. or until filling is heated through and edges of cups are golden brown.

Steps:

• Preheat over to 350 degrees. Spray a mini muffin pan with cooking spray or lightly grease. Put each won ton wrapper in a muffin cup with the edges of the wrapper extending over the top of the cup. Bake for 5 minutes at 350 degrees.
• In the meantime, combine remaining ingredients. Spoon it into the won ton cups. Bake 12-14 minutes or until filling is warmed throughout and cup edges are golden brown.

Steps:

• Put a baking sheet in the lower third of the oven and preheat to 425 degrees F. Whisk the eggs, half-and-half, 3/4 teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon pepper in a large bowl and set aside.
• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the spinach, artichoke hearts and 2 pinches salt. Cook, stirring, until the spinach is wilted and the skillet is dry, about 1 minute. Remove the vegetables to a plate lined with a few layers of paper towels; let cool slightly. Carefully pull up the sides of the paper towels and squeeze out most of the liquid; stir the vegetables into the egg mixture.
• Scatter the goat cheese in the bottom of the pie crust. Pour in the egg mixture, then arrange the tomatoes cut-side up in the eggs. Season with pepper. Carefully place the quiche on the hot baking sheet and bake until set, about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, whisk the vinegar and mustard in a medium bowl; whisk in the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil until smooth. When the quiche is almost done, add the salad mix to the bowl and toss with the vinaigrette. Season with salt and pepper.
• Cut the quiche into wedges and serve with the salad.

Steps:

• For the dough: Sprinkle the yeast over the milk in a liquid measuring cup and set aside until bubbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Combine the flour, sugar and salt in a large bowl and whisk together. Add the eggs, vanilla, yeast mixture, lemon zest and nutmeg; stir with a wooden spoon to combine. Turn the dough out onto a work surface and knead until soft and smooth, about 5 minutes. Knead in the butter in three additions, dusting the dough with flour if it is too sticky. Transfer the dough to a lightly oiled large bowl, cover with plastic wrap and let rise at room temperature until doubled in size, about 1 1/2 hours.
• For the filling: Combine the artichoke hearts, spinach, cream cheese, mozzarella, Parmesan, a pinch of salt and some pepper in a food processor and process until smooth.
• For the topping: Whisk the flour, panko, a pinch salt and some pepper in a medium bowl, then work in the butter with your fingers until the mixture is sandy and chunky. Stir in the Parmesan and parsley and set aside.
• For the assembly: Cut the dough in half with a bench scraper or chef's knife. Using a rolling pin, roll each half into a 12-by-16-inch rectangle on a lightly floured surface. Using an offset spatula, spread the filling on both dough rectangles, all the way to the edges. Sprinkle 1/4 cup of the Parmesan and 1/4 cup of the mozzarella all over the filling on each dough rectangle. Drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil. Starting from the long side, tightly roll each rectangle into a log. Wrap each log in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 15 minutes.
• Unwrap the logs and cut each in half lengthwise with a bench scraper or chef's knife. For each babka, twist the 2 halves together a few times, starting from the middle. Coat two 9-by-5-inch loaf pans with cooking spray and line each with parchment, leaving an overhang on the 2 longer sides so you can pull the babka out of the pan after baking. Place a babka snuggly in each pan and sprinkle with the topping. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise for 45 minutes to 1 hour.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Drizzle the melted butter all over the babkas. Bake until browned, about 45 minutes.
• Let sit 10 minutes, then remove the babkas from the pans and remove the parchment. Let cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350.
• In a large mixing bowl or food processor mix together spinach, artichokes, cream cheese, alfredo sauce, grated parmesan, and grated romano.
• Mix until all ingredients are fully incorporated with one and other.
• Add salt and pepper to taste.
• Set bowl aside.
• In another large mixing bowl mix together hash browns, salt, pepper, garlic powder, shredded cheese, 2 tablespoons of olive oil and egg whites together.
• Make sure that all ingredients are mixed well together.
• Prepare a muffin tin with non stick cooking spray.
• Fill each muffin compartment with the potato mixture. Make sure that the mixture covers the bottom and sides of each compartment leaving in nest like hole on the center for filling later.
• Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes of until golden or until desired crispiness is achieved.
• Fill each cup with the spinach mixture.
• Top each cup with Italian shredded cheese.
• Bake for 7-12 minutes or until cheese is bubbling and golden brown.
• Remove the cups from muffin pan.
• Top with bacon and green onions.
• Serve Hot.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Boil a kettle of water (an electric kettle works great here).
• Meanwhile, heat a medium saucepan over medium-high. Add the olive oil and artichoke hearts and cook, stirring occasionally, until the artichoke hearts fall apart, become jammy and start to brown at the edges, 10 to 15 minutes. Add the spinach, season with salt and pepper, and stir until considerably wilted, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl and return the saucepan to the stove (no need to wash it out).
• Make the béchamel sauce: In the saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and cook, whisking constantly until smooth, 1 to 2 minutes. Still whisking constantly, slowly add the half-and-half. Raise the heat to high and bring to a simmer, whisking all the while, then immediately reduce the heat to continue simmering, now whisking occasionally, until the sauce thickens to the consistency of gravy, 10 to 20 minutes. Season generously with salt, pepper and nutmeg.
• Add half of the béchamel to the bowl with the artichokes. Stir to combine and cool slightly, for about 15 minutes. While the mixture cools, place the lasagna noodles in a large high-sided pan or dish, pour over the recently boiled water from the kettle and let soak until the noodles are softened but not soggy, about 15 minutes. Add the cottage cheese, Parmesan and egg to the artichoke mixture, season with salt and pepper and stir to combine.
• Assemble the lasagna: In an 8-inch square baking pan or dish, add enough béchamel to thinly coat the bottom. Put down a single layer of lasagna noodles, about 3 noodles, letting the ends rise up the edges of the pan. Spread half of the artichoke mixture evenly over the noodles. Turn the pan 90 degrees and put down another layer of lasagna noodles, again pressing the ends up against the edges of the pan. Spread half of the béchamel evenly over the noodles. Repeat these layers once more with the remaining lasagna noodles, artichoke mixture and béchamel, ending with the béchamel. Evenly sprinkle the mozzarella on top. (At this point, you can cover the lasagna and refrigerate it for up to 24 hours if not baking right away.)
• Bake the lasagna until the sauce is bubbling at the edges (especially in the corners of the pan), and the mozzarella and the exposed ends of the noodles are golden brown and crispy, 15 to 20 minutes. (Add more time if baking directly from the refrigerator.) Let cool for at least 30 minutes before slicing so that slices won't collapse when transferred to plates.

Steps:

• Heat oil in medium skillet over medium heat.
• Add peppers, and saute until tender, about 6 minutes, then set aside.
• Press all liquid out of thawed spinach and set aside.
• Beat eggs in a large bowl until frothy.
• Beat in spinach, milk, parmesan cheese, nutmeg, salt, and generous fresh pepper.
• Grease a 13x9 baking dish with a small amount of the butter.
• Use the rest of the butter to coat one side of each slice of bread, and then cut bread into 1 inch cubes.
• You should have 9 cups approximately of cubed bread.
• Layer half the bread cubes, then half the red pepper strips, 1 jar of artichoke hearts, half the scallions, half the spinach mixture, and half the cheddar cheese.
• Repeat layers in order, ending with cheddar cheese.
• Cover dish and refrigerate overnight.
• Remove from refrigerator and uncover 30 minutes prior to baking.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Bake for 1 hour until golden brown on top and firm in center, a knife inserted in center will come out clean.
• Let rest 15 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, warm the olive oil and butter over medium heat.
• When the butter has melted, add onion and cook until wilted. (4 minutes).
• Add the garlic and cook 2 minutes longer, stirring occasionally.
• Sprinkle flour over the onion mixture.
• Cook, stirring constantly, until mixture turns golden brown in color. (12 minutes).
• While whisking, slowly pour chicken broth into onion-flour mixture until it is smoothly incorporated.
• When the mixture begins to simmer, stir in the cream.
• Allow mixture to simmer and remove from the heat.
• Add the Parmesan, bouillon, lemon juice and sugar and stir until thoroughly blended.
• Add the sour cream, spinach and artichoke hearts, Monterey Jack cheese and Tabasco sauce and stir until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.
• Transfer to a warm serving bowl and serve immediately with chips or bread cubes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• Mix together Parmesan cheese, spinach, and artichoke hearts.
• Combine remaining ingredients and mix with spinach mixture.
• Bake for 20-30 minutes.
• Serve with crackers or toasted bread.
