    • Spinach Artichoke & Green Chile Dip

      Posted at 1:12 pm by NativeNM, on December 8, 2023

      This recipe is inspired by one of our favorite appetizers at Zio’s Italian Kitchen. Zio’s was an Italian restaurant chain that we frequented when we lived in KC. Sadly Zio’s closed their doors for good, but I fondly remember their menu with so many traditional and non-traditional Italian dishes. One of their most popular appetizers was their Baked Spinach and Artichoke Dip. They also used this tasty dip in their Artichoke Chicken Pizza and Artichoke Pasta Florentine. Today I’m recreating their famous dip with a New Mexico twist by adding green chile. This is an amazing appetizer plus I’ve included my version of their pizza and pasta dishes. If only I could figure out how they made those mini French loaves that they brought to the table with bread dipping spices . . . they were so good!

    • Spinach Artichoke Pizza with Chicken

      Posted at 1:00 pm by NativeNM, on February 3, 2023

      I love making pizza on a cold day. I crank up the oven to 500 degrees and heat up my comal as the kitchen becomes warm and toasty. And then there’s the aroma of pizza baked to perfection that will linger on within the kitchen. I’s been awhile since I’ve posted a new pizza, but I think this one is more than worthy of a post. It’s packed with healthy ingredients as well as flavor. Instead of tomato sauce, I brushed spinach pesto over the crust which goes perfectly with the spinach, artichokes and cherry tomatoes. I added some cooked chicken on top for Joe. I could go full vegetarian but he likes to have at least one meat on his pizza. The flavors blend so well together as they bake into the pizza. A sprinkle of toasted pine nuts over top gives it a little texture in every bite. As far as pizza goes, this one is at the top of my list.

    • Spinach Artichoke Flatbread Pizza

      Posted at 9:55 am by NativeNM, on January 3, 2012

      Spinach Artichoke Pizza is one of my favorites.  Instead of layering pizza toppings, I make what I call “The Mix” which is a blend of spinach, artichokes, cheese, garlic, green onion and a dry Italian herb blend.  From there you can add additional toppings but the mix makes this pizza easy and flavorful.  And there’s no sauce for this pizza, instead I like to add fresh, roasted, or sun dried tomatoes.  Tonight we made several different pizza’s but the favorite was topped with cream cheese and grilled chicken which tasted like spinach artichoke dip.  I’m sure you will agree!
