Chef Jenn's Tips
- Cut the artichoke hearts into large chunks rather than chopping them small. Fine pieces disappear into the casserole and you lose the texture they add.
- Using fresh spinach instead of frozen? Cook it down first. Straight-from-the-bag fresh spinach releases too much water and can leave the casserole watery.
