Spinach Artichoke Macaroni and Cheese

As we enter the winter months I always want nice warm and filling meals. Macaroni and cheese always fits the bill for those really frigid days! This version of mac and cheese is a lot like that spinach and artichoke dip that you get at restaurants as an appetizer. I found this on a bunch of different websites, but I went with a recipe from tablespoon.com.


Ingredients:
1.75 Cups Jack Cheese
1/2 Cup Pecorino
1 Box Frozen Chopped Spinach
2 - 6oz Jars Marinated Artichoke Hearts
1.75 Cups Milk
3/4 Cups Sour Cream
4oz Cream Cheese
3/4 Box of Macaroni


Directions:
Mix the milk, sour cream, and cream cheese and whisk until combined. Add the jack and pecorino and mix. Cooke the pasta, strain, and add to the milk/cheese mixture. Mix well until creamy. Thaw the spinach and squeeze out extra liquids. Strain and chop artichokes. Add to the pasta mixture and mix well. Pour pasta mixture into a large baking dish. Bake at 400 for around 30-40 minutes.

Enjoy,
Becky
