For an extra layer of flavor, try using roasted garlic instead of minced garlic. If you don't have spinach artichoke dip on hand, you can make your own by combining cooked spinach, artichoke hearts, cream cheese, mayonnaise, and Parmesan cheese. Feel free to experiment with different types of cheese, such as provolone or Monterey Jack. This casserole can be assembled ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Add an extra 10-15 minutes to the baking time if baking from cold. Add some vegetables, like chopped bell peppers or mushrooms, for a more balanced meal.

Jun 16, 2025The orzo was a bit mushy, next time I will try cooking it separately before adding it to the casserole.
