What’s better than everyone’s favorite oozy, creamy party dip? That very same dip transformed into your next quick weeknight meal. Frozen spinach and canned artichokes—two hard-working ingredients that you should always have around—join forces with penne to live their best cheesy life. And if that isn’t enough, it all comes together in one skillet—no separate pot needed to boil up the pasta—before getting a kiss under the broiler for a burnished finale. It may at times feel like there’s too much or too little liquid, but trust the process (it will also continue to thicken up off-heat). Hot sauce is a must here.
