  3. Add onion, garlic and pinch of salt and cook until golden. Transfer a third of the onion mixture to the blender with the cream sauce and blend and set aside.
  4. Add pepper flakes and chives to the skillet and mix in. Add spinach and salt and cook for 1 min(2 mins) if spinach has too much moisture. **
  5. Add artichokes and mix in. Cook for another minute or 2 to heat up well.
  6. Add the blended cream sauce and mix in. Continue to cook for 2-3 mins to thicken. Stir frequently to avoid sticking to the bottom. Taste carefully and adjust salt and flavor. Add salt and onion powder if needed. (You can store this dip refrigerated for upto 3 days. Broil when ready to serve).
  7. Sprinkle breadcrumbs all over, then put in the oven and broil for 4-5 mins. (or bake at 450 deg F if you dont have the broil option)
  8. Serve hot with crusty bread, crackers, chips, veggies. Use the dip in wraps or make a melt sandwich. Add roasted veggies or mashed beans and the dip and put in a panini press to grill.
