Instructions

Step 1: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9×9-inch baking dish.

Step 2: In a saucepan over medium heat, melt butter. Add garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant. Stir in onion powder.

Step 3: Whisk in flour and cook for 1 minute. Gradually whisk in milk, cooking and stirring until thickened, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 4: Remove from heat and stir in sour cream, ricotta, salt, and pepper. Mix in the drained spinach, then fold in half of the mozzarella and Parmesan.

Step 5: Spread the mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish. Top with remaining mozzarella and Parmesan.

Step 6: Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the top is golden and bubbly. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
