Ingredients: 2 cups spinach, packed; 1 avocado; 2 ounces smoked gouda or cheddar; 2 ounces Monterey jack or other melting cheese; 1 ounce Parmesan; 1-2 teaspoons hot sauce (I like Frank's); 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, or more to taste; Pinch black pepper; salt, if necessary; tortilla chips, for serving

Servings: persons

2 cups spinach, packed
1 avocado
2 ounces smoked gouda or cheddar
2 ounces Monterey jack or other melting cheese
1 ounce Parmesan
1-2 teaspoons hot sauce (I like Frank's)
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, or more to taste
Pinch black pepper
salt, if necessary
tortilla chips, for serving

1
Add the spinach to the bowl of a food processor. (It helps to put the spinach in first so that the other ingredients weigh it down.) Place the cheese (cubed or shredded is fine) on top, holding back about 2 tablespoons. Add the seasonings other than the salt.
2
Cut the avocado in half and remove the pit. Scoop the flesh into the food processor.
3
Pulse the ingredients in the food processor until smooth, scraping down the sides of the work bowl as needed. Taste the dip and adjust seasoning-I recommend sampling it on a tortilla chip to check the salt levels. Add salt only if necessary.
4
Scoop the dip into two 1-cup, ovenproof ramekins. Bake at 350F for 10-12 minutes until bubbling, or microwave for about 2 minutes, rotating halfway through.
5
Preheat the broiler and top the hot ramekins with the reserved cheese. broil 3-5 minutes until the cheese on top is bubbly and beginning to brown. Serve with chips.
