¾ cup plain greek yogurt
1 teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon black pepper

directions

1. preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. wilt the baby spinach in a skillet over medium heat until just soft. drain excess moisture and chop finely.

3. in a large bowl, combine chopped spinach, artichokes, cottage cheese, mozzarella, parmesan, greek yogurt, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. stir until well combined.

4. slice the top off the sourdough loaf and scoop out the inside to create a deep bowl. (save the removed bread for dipping!)
