- Wash and dry the spinach well.
- Sweat the garlic, shallot, and artichokes in a pot with the butter. Cook gently until the shallot is translucent and cooked through.
- When you hear a sizzle and the water has evaporated from the pan, turn the heat to low. While stirring, add the cream cheese, one spoonful at a time, until melted.
- Turn the heat to medium and bring the contents of the pot to a gentle simmer. With the mixture bubbling, add the spinach and salt.
- Remove the mixture from the heat and fold in both of the cheeses.
- Transfer to a warmed serving dish and serve with pita chips, warm torn bread, crudité, or really just about anything you want to dip.
