Kale Artichoke Dip

Finally!!  It is starting to feel a bit like Fall here in the deep South!  Fall is such an inspiring time...especially for cooking.  Today I felt like Spinach Artichoke dip, but wanted to make it a little different.  I decided to try Kale instead of Spinach.  The result was delicious!

Recipe:

1 10 oz. bag Frozen Chopped Kale (thawed)

1/2 cup Whole Milk (more if you want it creamier)

2 cups Parmesan Cheese

1 cup Mozzarella Cheese

1 jar Artichoke Hearts (chopped)

a generous sprinkling of Garlic Powder

a sprinkling of Nutmeg

Salt and Pepper to taste

Instructions:

1.  Preheat the oven to 375 degrees

2.  Mix all ingredients in a large mixing bowl.

3.  Transfer to decorative oven-safe dish.

4.  Bake for 30-45 minutes, or until bubbly.

5.  Serve with your choice of chips.

(if you want to make it a little less healthy and a little more delectable, you could add butter!)

This mixture of flavors would also be delicious in pasta shells, topped with Marinara or Arrabiata Sauce.  That is how I will serve it next time...and I'll let you know how it goes.  I'll probably go with homemade Arrabiatta, just because its fancier and more delicious!  Haha!  Happy Fall, all!
