Spinach and artichoke grilled cheese

Man, I love spinach and artichokes.  Add it into a grilled cheese sandwich and I'm in heaven. 

From Joy The Baker.

splash of olive oil
1 small clove garlic
3 cups (or 3 big handfuls) baby spinach

4 slices bread (I used sourdough)

about 2 tablespoons cream cheese

1/3-1/2 cup grated or crumbled jack cheese

2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

1/2 cup coarsely chopped canned artichoke hearts, drained

1 heaping tablespoon sour cream

1/2 to 1 teaspoon sriracha *optional

large pinch of sea salt

1 tablespoon butter, for grilling the sandwiches

In a small skillet, heat olive oil over medium-low heat.  

Add garlic and saute for 30 seconds.  

Add spinach leaves and saute until wilted.  

Remove spinach from skillet, place in a medium bowl and set aside.

Spread each slice of bread with a bit of cream cheese.

Squeeze or press as much liquid as possible out of the canned artichoke hearts using a paper towel.

To the bowl of sautéed spinach add, jack cheese, Parmesan cheese, chopped artichoke hearts, sour cream, sriracha, and salt and stir until combined.

Top two slices of bread with spinach and artichoke filling.  

Make sandwiches with the two remaining slices of bread.

Heat butter in a skillet over medium-low heat.  

Add sandwiches and grill until each side is golden and the insides are melty warm.
