CREAMY CHEESY SPINACH DIP



Creamy Cheesy Spinach Dip image

This recipe doesn't contain mayo or sour cream like most, so it's very cheesy and very delicious. I'm asked for the recipe every time I make it. For those who don't want a strong cheese like Cheddar, you can replace it with anything you like or even leave it out altogether. I like adding the Cheddar because it adds color and a little more flavor.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     side-dish

Time 50m

Yield 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 large white onion, chopped
2 poblano chile peppers, seeded and chopped
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 pound button mushrooms, thinly sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
3/4 cup sour cream
6 ounces gruyere cheese, grated (about 1 1/2 cups)
6 ounces muenster cheese, grated (about 1 1/2 cups)
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
Toasted sourdough bread, for serving
1 1/2 pounds baby spinach
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Put the spinach in a large microwave-safe bowl; cover with plastic wrap and pierce a few times to vent. Microwave until it starts wilting, about 4 minutes. Uncover and stir, then microwave until completely wilted, about 2 more minutes. Transfer to a colander and rinse under cold water; squeeze dry and set aside.
  • Heat the olive oil and butter in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onion, poblanos and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper and cook, stirring, until the onions are translucent, about 4 minutes. Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring, until tender, about 5 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium; add the garlic and flour and stir until incorporated, about 2 minutes.
  • Gradually stir in the chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Add the sour cream and cook, stirring, until the liquid thickens, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in all but a few tablespoons of the gruyere, then stir in the muenster and cilantro. Transfer to a food processor and add the spinach; pulse until finely chopped.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Spread the dip in a 1-quart baking dish and sprinkle with the reserved gruyere. Transfer to the oven and bake until the cheese melts, about 6 minutes. Serve with bread.
