Instructions

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Grease a 1 1/2-quart shallow baking dish with 1 teaspoon olive oil.
Heat 2 teaspoons olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Cook onion and garlic in hot oil, stirring until lightly browned, about 4 to 7 minutes.
Add spinach and simmer until heated through, about 5 minutes. Drain any liquid from the mixture and transfer spinach to a bowl.
Pour milk into the pot and return to medium heat. Melt cream cheese into milk, stirring constantly, about 3 minutes. Return spinach mixture to pot with 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese and Cheddar cheese; stir to combine. Season with Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper.
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and top with remaining 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven until bubbly and golden brown, about 20 to 25 minutes.
