Preparation

Step 1

1. Dice 2 cloves garlic. Chop artichokes. Wash and stem spinach, then chop it coarsely.

2. Heat about 1 tablespoon olive oil in skillet. Add garlic, saute 30 seconds. Then add spinach and a pinch of kosher salt, and saute for a few minutes until just limp. Add artichokes and saute for another minute or so until heated through. Drain off liquid from pan. Stir in 2 tablespoons sour cream and another pinch of kosher salt.

On each piece, spread some shredded cheese, spinach artichoke filling, some more cheese (1/2 cup cheese per sandwich), and the other piece of bread. When the bottom bread is browned, flip sandwich and cook until bread is toasted and cheese is melted.
