Creamed Spinach Soufflé With Artichokes Recipes

CREAMED SPINACH SOUFFLé WITH ARTICHOKES

Steps:

• Thaw spinach in the microwave, covered. (I do a couple batches at 3 minutes on high power.) Place spinach in a colander to drain in the sink. Drain the artichoke hearts (or thaw frozen ones in the microwave). Chop the artichokes and pat them dry.
• While the vegetables are in the microwave, chop the onions and garlic. Grease a 9x13 pan with cooking spray. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Crack eggs, separating the whites into a medium bowl and the yolks into a small bowl. Using a hand mixer, beat the egg whites, starting at low speed and increasing to high, until stiff peaks form. (It will look fluffy, like meringue.) You can chill the egg whites until they are needed.
• In a 2-quart saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add onions, and after a couple minutes, add the garlic. Cook until the onions are soft, at least five minutes total. While they are cooking, whisk the evaporated and 2% milk together. Leaving the egg yolks in a separate bowl, beat the yolks with a fork. Place your milk mixture and egg yolks near the stove.
• In the saucepan, stir in the flour, salt and pepper until blended. Gradually stir in the milk mixture, and continue stirring until the sauce boils and thickens slightly. Spoon a small amount of the sauce into the egg yolks and stir them together to temper the eggs. Slowly pour the egg mixture into the sauce in the pan, stirring quickly to prevent lumps. Stirring constantly, cook until the sauce thickens, but do not let it boil.
• Remove the sauce from the heat and stir in 1/4 cup of Parmesan. Squeeze the spinach dry (I use a clean dish towel that doesn't shed fibers; paper towels also would work.) Add the spinach and artichokes to a large bowl. Pour the sauce over the vegetables and stir to combine. Using a wire whisk, gently fold in the beaten egg whites until they are incorporated into the mixture.
• Transfer the vegetable mixture to the 9x13 pan and smooth the top evenly. Sprinkle on 1/4 cup of Parmesan. Bake uncovered for 25 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
• Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to four days.

• Place the spinach in a large mixing bowl, and stir in the artichoke hearts.
• Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat, and cook and stir the mushrooms until softened, about 10 minutes. Mix in the green onions, and cook and stir until onions are soft, about 5 more minutes. Transfer the mushrooms, green onions, and butter from the skillet into the bowl with spinach mixture.
• Remove cream cheese from wrapping, place into a microwave-safe bowl, and cook in the microwave until warm and very soft, about 1 1/2 minutes. Stir the softened cream cheese into the spinach mixture, and add the sour cream, water chestnuts, Parmesan cheese, mayonnaise, garlic salt, and lemon juice. Squeeze the roasted garlic out of the garlic skins, and mix thoroughly into the spinach mixture. Spoon the casserole into a round 2-quart baking dish.

VEGAN "SOUFFLé" WITH SPINACH & ARTICHOKE

Steps:

• In a medium bowl combine flours, tapioca starch, and salt. In a small bowl, add warm water and gradually stir in yeast until well combined. Let sit until mixture is white and creamy looking. In another small bowl, combine grapeseed oil, apple cider vinegar, flaxseed, and agave nectar. Stir until well mixed.
• Add wet ingredients (including yeast/water mixture) to dry ingredients and stir or knead until a cohesive ball of dough forms. Cover with a dishtowel and set aside in a warm place for 30-60 minutes to rise.
• Once dough has risen a bit, roll it out into a long oval or rectangle and spread the coconut oil over the middle third (as shown in the photos above). Wrap the outer thirds over the middle and roll and knead the entire thing until the coconut oil is softened and evenly spread throughout the dough, with no solid chunks remaining. Place dough in refrigerator for about 30 minutes, until chilled.
• Once it has chilled, remove dough from fridge and divide into four equal pieces. Roll one piece into a 1/4-1/2 inch thick circle and gently transfer into a soufflé dish or ramekin, using your fingers to repair any cracks that may form when you transfer it. Repeat with remaining dough and place the soufflé dishes in the fridge.
• To make the filling: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a medium skillet over medium heat, add onion, artichoke hearts, garlic, and bell pepper and heat until onion has softened, about 5 minutes. Add spinach and stir until the spinach has wilted. Remove from heat and place in a blender or food processor, blending until the vegetables are chopped fine but not puréed. Transfer to a medium sized bowl and set aside.
• In the same blender, add tofu, lemon juice, tabasco, white rice flour, nutritional yeast, apple cider vinegar, salt, and onion powder. Blend until very smooth. Transfer to the bowl with the vegetables and stir to combine.
• Remove soufflé dishes from the fridge and fill about 3/4 of the way full with filling. Fold excess dough over the top and shape as desired. Brush the top of the dough with olive oil and bake for 30-40 minutes, until dough is golden brown. Carefully remove from oven (soufflé dishes will be hot!) and let cool for a couple of minutes before serving.

SPINACH SOUFFLE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Place the spinach in a colander to drain, pressing out as much excess liquid as you can.
• Make the bechamel sauce: Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat; add the flour and stir until it becomes a thick paste. Add the milk 1/2 cup at a time, whisking well after each addition, until you have a smooth sauce. Remove from the heat and whisk in the salt, nutmeg and pepper. Taste for seasoning. Set aside to cool slightly.
• Beat the egg whites until just frothy with an electric mixer. Add the cream of tartar and beat on high speed until it forms firm peaks. Set aside.
• Whisk the egg yolks in a large bowl until they are pale yellow, then add the warm bechamel sauce a bit at a time. Switch to a large rubber spatula; gently mix in the spinach, Parmesan and 1/2 cup Romano. Fold in a third of the egg whites to lighten, then gently fold in the remaining egg whites until thoroughly combined but still light and fluffy.
• Lightly grease a 2-quart souffle dish with cooking spray or softened butter, then add the remaining 1/2 cup Romano and rotate the dish to coat the bottom and sides with the cheese. Pour in the souffle batter, then bake until puffy and golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes. Serve immediately.
