How To Make Spinach Artichoke Dip
Full ingredients and instructions are also in the recipe card at the bottom of this blog post.
PREP
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Prep the ingredients by chopping the 14 oz canned artichokes into bite-size chunks, chop 10 oz frozen spinach if needed (I bought pre-chopped frozen spinach), and cut the 8 oz cream cheese into small chunks.
STEP 1: Mix Cream Cheese
In a large bowl, use an electric hand mixer to combine 8 oz softened cream cheese, ¼ cup sour cream, and ¼ cup mayonnaise until smooth and creamy. NOTE: You can also hand mix these together - it just won't be as smooth and creamy but will still work!
STEP 2: Add Spinach + Artichokes
Now add all other ingredients, 10 oz frozen spinach (thawed), 14 oz canned artichokes (drained and chopped), 1 cup freshly grated parmesan, 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese and 1 tsp dried minced onion. Mix together with a spatula.
STEP 3: Bake It
Pour the spinach into an 8x8 baking dish (or 8" round dish like I used) and spread evenly with a spatula. Place in the oven to bake for 20 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool 5 minutes. Now it's ready to serve hot with crackers, chips or bread.
Recipe Tips
- First off, remember that this dip is best served hot, not cold. You can easily reheat it in the microwave or oven.
- For easier dipping, chop the canned artichokes into small, bite-sized pieces.
- I like to buy pre-chopped spinach for convenience, but you can definitely use regular frozen spinach-just thaw it, drain any excess liquid, and then chop it into smaller pieces.
How To Store Leftovers
- REFRIGERATE - Store in an airtight container for 3-4 days.
- REHEAT - You can reheat the dip in the microwave, or back in the oven at 350°F until heated through.
