Peel and cut the Yukon Gold potatoes into even chunks. Place them in a large pot and cover with water.
Add 1 teaspoon of salt to the water and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to medium and cook until the potatoes are fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes.
While the potatoes are cooking, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the spinach to the skillet and sauté until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
Drain the cooked potatoes and return them to the pot. Add the butter and heavy cream. Mash the potatoes until smooth and creamy.
Fold in the sautéed spinach, chopped artichoke hearts, and grated parmesan cheese. Stir until well combined.
Season with black pepper and additional salt, if necessary, to taste.
Serve warm as a hearty side dish. Enjoy!
