• Spray 13x9-inch (3-quart) glass baking dish with cooking spray. Arrange bread cubes in dish. Spoon vegetable mixture evenly over bread cubes; sprinkle with Monterey Jack cheese.
• In medium bowl, beat eggs, milk, mustard, salt and pepper with wire whisk until blended; pour evenly over bread, vegetables and cheese. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Cover tightly with foil; refrigerate at least 4 hours but no longer than 24 hours.

THE BEST SPINACH ARTICHOKE DIP

Steps:

• Position a rack in the upper third of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Spray a 1-quart baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
• Put the cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise and garlic in a large bowl. Mix vigorously until combined and smooth. (If you prefer, you can use a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment.) Add the spinach to the cream cheese mixture, breaking it up as you add it. Add the artichokes, mozzarella and 1/2 cup of the Parmesan, mixing to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and top with the remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan.
• Bake until the dip begins to bubble, 20 to 25 minutes. Turn the oven to broil and continue to cook, keeping an eye on it so it doesn't burn, until the top is golden brown, about 5 minutes. Serve warm with crackers, chips or toasted bread.

ARTICHOKE SPINACH STRATA

Steps:

• Start preparation either the night or morning before (depending upon when you are serving, see note above in description).
• Spray a 9 x 13 rectangular glass baking pan with cooking spray.
• Place 7 ounces of freshly washed baby spinach in a microwave safe bowl, cover and cook for 5 minutes on high until wilted. Drain in colander in your sink and let cool. Then coarsely chop.
• Drain jar of artichoke hearts but do not rinse. Chop into small pieces.
• Mix the milk and wine in a shallow bowl. Tear the bread into medium pieces (a bit bigger than bite sized) and dip a few pieces at a time into the milk mixture. Gently squeeze as much liquid as possible from the bread without tearing it. Do not let the bread soak; dip and squeeze as quickly as possible or the bread will disintegrate! Spread the prepared bread in the 9 x 13 pan. Continue dip, squeeze and spread until all the bread is distributed nicely around the pan. Reserve any leftover milk mixture.
• Sprinkle the prepared spinach and artichokes on the bread - distributing evenly. Push the vegetables into the bread mixture.
• Beat 6 large eggs and mix with remaining milk & wine mixture. Add oregano and beat well. Pour over the bread & vegetable mixture in the pan.
• Sprinkle the Asiago cheese on top of the strata.
• Cover the pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate (overnight or until evening, depending upon when you are serving).
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Remove plastic wrap and bake uncovered until puffy and browned, 45 minutes to 1 hour. Serve immediately.

SPINACH ARTICHOKE DIP

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a medium pot over medium heat. Add garlic and cook, stirring until it's softened and fragrant, about 30 seconds.
• Add spinach to pot one handful at a time, letting each handful completely wilt before adding the next. Add crushed red pepper, if using, and season with salt and pepper. Continue to cook, stirring frequently, until most of the liquid from the spinach has evaporated (no need to drain), about 3 minutes. Add artichokes and season with salt and pepper. Cook for a few minutes, just to take the raw edge off the artichokes.
• Reduce heat to low and add cream cheese and mozzarella. Using a wooden spoon or spatula, stir until all the cheese has melted, about 3 minutes. Stir in sour cream and pecorino, and season with more salt and pepper. You can certainly eat this dip straight from the pot (or transferred to a serving bowl), but running it under the broiler for a crispy top is also an excellent option. To do so, transfer dip to a small ovenproof skillet (6 to 8 inches). Place in oven and broil until the top is golden and the dip is bubbling, 5 to 8 minutes. Let sit a minute or two before serving.

SPINACH AND ARTICHOKE STRATA WITH RED PEPPERS

Steps:

• Heat oil in medium skillet over medium heat.
• Add peppers, and saute until tender, about 6 minutes, then set aside.
• Press all liquid out of thawed spinach and set aside.
• Beat eggs in a large bowl until frothy.
• Beat in spinach, milk, parmesan cheese, nutmeg, salt, and generous fresh pepper.
• Grease a 13x9 baking dish with a small amount of the butter.
• Use the rest of the butter to coat one side of each slice of bread, and then cut bread into 1 inch cubes.
• You should have 9 cups approximately of cubed bread.
• Layer half the bread cubes, then half the red pepper strips, 1 jar of artichoke hearts, half the scallions, half the spinach mixture, and half the cheddar cheese.
• Repeat layers in order, ending with cheddar cheese.
• Cover dish and refrigerate overnight.
• Remove from refrigerator and uncover 30 minutes prior to baking.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Bake for 1 hour until golden brown on top and firm in center, a knife inserted in center will come out clean.
• Let rest 15 minutes before serving.
