Start with a cold skillet and add 4 slices of center cut bacon to render fat on medium heat.

Cook the bacon until crispy, about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Remove the bacon and set aside, leaving the bacon fat in the skillet.

Add 1 chopped onion to the skillet and sauté until tender, about 3-4 minutes.

Add 1 tablespoon of garlic paste and cook for another minute until fragrant.

Add 1 can of artichoke hearts and 1 pound of fresh spinach to the skillet.

Cook the spinach until wilted and the water has evaporated, about 5-7 minutes.

Season the mixture with 1 tablespoon chicken bouillon powder, 1 tablespoon garlic and herb seasoning, 1 teaspoon smoked paprika, and 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes.

Stir in 1/4 cup sour cream, 2 blocks of cream cheese, and 1/2 cup Boars and garlic and herb cheese until well combined.

Add the cooked bacon back into the mixture along with 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese and fresh chopped parsley.

Fold in 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese, reserving some for topping.

Preheat the oven to 375°F and transfer the mixture to a baking dish, topping with reserved mozzarella cheese.

Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes until bubbly and golden on top.

To make tortilla chips, cut tortillas into quarters and fry in 350°F oil for a few minutes until crispy.

Remove chips from oil and drain on a wire rack, seasoning with kosher salt immediately after frying.
