(from castro15’s recipe box)

Categories: Pizza/Flatbread

Ingredients

  • 10 oz. box frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
  • 10 oz. box frozen artichoke hearts, thawed and squeezed dry
  • 8 oz. cream cheese, at room temp
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan, plus more for topping
  • 1/3 cup mayo
  • 1/3 cup sour cream
  • 2 garlic cloves, grated
  • 1 tsp grated lemon zest
  • Kosher salt and black pepper
  • 6 plain or sesame bagels, split
  • 1 cup ricotta
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella
  • Red pepper flakes, for topping

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 500. Combine the spinach, artichokes, cream cheese, Parmesan, mayo, sour cream, garlic, lemon zest, 1/2 tsp salt and black pepper in a food processor. Puree until very smooth.

  2. Put the bagels cut-side up on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until lightly toasted, about 5 minutes. Spread a heaping 1/4 cup of the spinach mixture on each bagel half. Dot each with 3 small spoonfuls of ricotta, then sprinkle with the mozzarella. Bake until the cheese is melted and bubbling, 10-12 minutes.

  3. Top the bagels with more Parmesan and a pinch of red pepper flakes.
