Ingredients:
2-1/2 tablespoons butter
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 shallot, chopped
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 pint heavy whipping cream
2/3 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 lemon, juiced
Dash hot sauce
Dash Worcestershire sauce
2 (10-ounce) boxes spinach, thawed and drained
1 (14-ounce) jar artichoke hearts, drained and coarsely chopped
Directions:
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
Melt butter in a 2-quart saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic and shallots and saute until tender, about 3 minutes. Stir in the flour and cook for 1 minute until it reaches a golden blonde color. Slowly whisk in the cream and turn up the heat until it thickens.
Add the parmesan and cheddar cheese. Stir until the cheese has melted. Add salt, pepper, lemon juice, hot sauce and Worcestershire. Fold in the spinach and artichoke hearts.
Add mixture to a casserole dish. Bake for 15 minutes until golden brown. Serve this dip with baked pita chips.
