Directions:
Bring large pot of water to boil for pasta, salt water and cook pasta el dente. While water comes to boil, place medium pot over medium-low heat with 2 tbsp olive oil. Add the onion and garlic to the pan and cook the veggies until very soft, about 10 minutes. The heat the broiler and position oven rack in middle of oven.

Turn the heat up to medium high and sprinkle the flour into the pan. Cook for 1 minute, then whisk the wine into pan, cooking another minute to burn off alcohol. Whisk milk into pan and bring to a bubble. Add the nutmeg, spinach, artichokes, salt and pepper to the sauce and simmer until thickened and vegetables are warmed through, 2-3 minutes. Add 1 cup each of the cheeses to the sauce and stir until melted.

Toss the sauce with the cooked pasta and transfer to casserole dish. Sprinkle more Fontina and Parmigiano over the top and bake until cheese has melted and top golden brown, about 30 minutes.
