AMAZING SPINACH ARTICHOKE CASSEROLE



Amazing Spinach Artichoke Casserole image

This is a family favorite...spinach, fresh mushrooms, artichokes and cheeses make up a mouth-watering side dish that is creamy and delicious. This recipe has a lot of steps, but it is relatively easy and is well worth it. If you are a garlic lover, add an additional clove or two of pressed garlic to the mixture without roasting it first. This is my most requested vegetable casserole recipe, and it is a Thanksgiving favorite.

Spinach, Mushroom and Cheese Breakfast Casserole image

This hearty meatless breakfast casserole is a great way to use up stale bread. The cubes on top bake into a delicious crunchy crust that just might be the best part! The whole thing can be assembled the night before and popped into the oven in the morning.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 7h45m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for greasing the dish
8 cups rustic Italian bread, crust removed, cut into 1-inch cubes
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
10 ounces cremini mushrooms, sliced (about 4 cups)
2 cloves garlic, minced
5 ounces fresh baby spinach (about 5 cups)
4 ounces Gruyere, shredded on the large holes of a box grater (about 1 1/2 cups)
1/3 cup grated Parmesan
8 large eggs
2 1/2 cups half-and-half
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves, roughly chopped

Steps:

  • Grease a 9-by-13-inch (3-quart) casserole dish with oil.
  • Toss the bread cubes with 2 tablespoons of the oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the bread to the skillet, and cook, tossing occasionally, until toasted and golden brown, about 8 minutes. Return the toasted bread to the bowl to cool.
  • Wipe out the skillet. Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons oil over medium-high heat until it starts to shimmer. Add the mushrooms in one layer (resist the urge to stir right away), and cook until they start to brown, about 3 minutes; stir, then continue to brown for 2 minutes more. Add the garlic, thyme, 1/4 teaspoon salt and some pepper, stir continuously for 1 minute, then fold in the spinach and another 1/4 teaspoon salt. Continue to cook, stirring often, until the spinach is wilted, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from the heat.
  • Place half the bread cubes in the prepared casserole dish, and sprinkle them with half each of the Gruyere and Parmesan. Add the mushroom-spinach mixture in an even layer. Top with the remaining bread cubes, Gruyere and Parmesan.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, half-and-half, 1/2 teaspoon salt and several grinds of pepper. Pour the egg mixture into the casserole dish. Cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 6 hours up to overnight. Remove the casserole from the refrigerator 30 minutes before baking.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Bake the casserole until the custard is set and the top is golden brown, 50 to 55 minutes. Cool for at least 15 minutes before serving warm or at room temperature.

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 packages (10 ounces each) frozen spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
2 cups Simple White Rice
2/3 cup whole milk
2 large eggs
1 cup grated Gruyere cheese
Coarse salt and ground pepper
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup dry white wine
1/2 pound ham, chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a large bowl, combine spinach, rice, milk, eggs, 3/4 cup cheese, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high. Add onion and garlic and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is soft and beginning to brown, about 10 minutes. Add wine and cook until evaporated, about 3 minutes. Add ham and cook until warmed through, about 2 minutes.
  • Add ham mixture to spinach mixture and stir to combine. Transfer to four 10-ounce ramekins or an 8-ounce square baking dish; top with 1/4 cup cheese. Bake until warmed through and golden brown on top, 20 to 30 minutes.

Tips:

  • Fresh spinach is best: If using fresh spinach, wash it thoroughly and remove any tough stems. Frozen spinach can also be used, but be sure to thaw and drain it well before using.
  • Use a variety of cheeses: This will give your casserole a more complex flavor. Cheddar, mozzarella, and Parmesan are all good choices. You can also use cream cheese for a richer flavor.
  • Don't overcook the spinach: Spinach cooks quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Otherwise, it will become mushy and lose its flavor.
  • Season the casserole well: Spinach casserole can be bland if it's not seasoned well. Be sure to use salt, pepper, and garlic powder to taste.
  • Top the casserole with breadcrumbs: This will give it a crispy topping. You can use plain breadcrumbs or seasoned breadcrumbs.
  • Bake the casserole until it's bubbly and hot: This usually takes about 30 minutes. You can check to see if the casserole is done by inserting a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, the casserole is done.

Conclusion:

Spinach casserole is a delicious and versatile dish that can be served as a main course or a side dish. It's perfect for potlucks, picnics, and family gatherings. With a few simple tips, you can make a spinach casserole that everyone will love.
