Spinach Feta & Artichoke Tater Tot Casserole

Drescription

This egg-based dinner casserole is assembled and baked in a single baking dish, making prep (and cleanup!) a breeze. Potato tots nestled on top add a crispy, golden crust. Be sure to squeeze as much moisture as you can from the frozen artichoke hearts and spinach to prevent the casserole from becoming soggy. If you can’t find frozen artichoke hearts, you can use canned—just make sure to rinse them well to remove any excess salty brine.

Ingredients

  • 12 large eggs
  • 2/3 cup half-and-half
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried dill
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground pepper
  • 2 cups frozen quartered artichoke hearts, thawed and squeezed dry
  • 1 1/2 cups frozen chopped spinach, thawed, drained and squeezed dry
  • 1/2 cup frozen diced onions
  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 13 ounces frozen potato tots (about 3 cups), thawed
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Coat a 7-by-11-inch casserole dish with cooking spray. Whisk eggs, half-and-half, garlic powder, oregano, dill and pepper together in the prepared dish until thoroughly combined. Scatter artichoke hearts, spinach and onions over the egg mixture; sprinkle evenly with feta. Arrange potato tots over the feta in a single layer, leaving about ¼ inch between each tot.
  2. Cover with foil and bake until the middle is just set and the edges are slightly golden brown, 50 to 55 minutes. Sprinkle with salt before serving.

Dorie Greenspan s Butter Poached Scallops in a Pouch

Cooking in a parchment-paper pouch is a traditional way to quickly infuse flavor into delicate seafood. Here, the flavor is butter and lemon, a classic with almost anything that swims, and the seafood is scallops. The twist is the lemon: It’s salt-preserved, citron confit, a staple in Mediterranean cuisines. You can make and refrigerate the packets up to 6 hours ahead; let them come to room temperature on the counter while you preheat the oven.
