Original recipe (1X) yields 8 servings

  • 6 ounces frozen chopped spinach, thawed

  • 16 ounces fettuccine

  • 1/2 cup pasta water, or as needed

  • 8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature

  • 1/2 cup heavy cream

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 3/4 cup shredded Parmesan cheese

  • 1/3 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

  • 1/3 cup sour cream

  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise

  • 1 1/2 cups canned artichokes, drained and chopped

  • salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

  • fresh herbs, for garnish (optional)

Directions

  • Place thawed spinach between several layers of paper towels. Roll up like a jelly roll and press firmly. Unroll spinach, place on a plate, fluff with a fork, and set aside.


  • Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Cook fettuccine at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain, and reserve 1/2 cup pasta water. Set aside.


  • Meanwhile, cut cream cheese into 1/2-inch chunks. Place in a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat, and add cream, and stir until cream cheese melts.


  • Add garlic, Parmesan, and mozzarella and cook, stirring, until cheeses are melted and sauce is bubbly. Add sour cream and mayonnaise; stir until well blended.


  • Add spinach and artichokes, and cook, stirring until heated through, about 2 minutes. Add pasta water 1 tablespoon at a time to loosen the sauce, if desired.


  • Season sauce with salt and pepper. Stir in drained fettuccine, garnish with fresh herbs, and serve.

    Cook’s Note

    For best results, use freshly shredded Parmesan. Pre-shredded Parmesan has anti-caking agents added to keep the shreds loose in the package. This may cause an unsightly texture in the sauce.
