Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups fresh spinach (or 10 oz frozen spinach, thawed and squeezed)
  • 1 can (14 oz) artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (plus extra for topping)
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • Red pepper flakes (optional, for a slight kick)

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a baking dish or oven-safe skillet.
  • Prepare spinach and artichokes: If using fresh spinach, sauté it lightly until wilted. For frozen spinach, thaw completely and squeeze out excess moisture. Drain and chop the artichoke hearts.
  • Mix ingredients: In a large bowl, combine cream cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream, mozzarella, Parmesan, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Stir until smooth. Fold in the spinach and artichokes until evenly distributed.
  • Assemble the dish: Spread the mixture evenly in the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle additional mozzarella on top if desired.
  • Bake: Place in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are bubbling and the top is golden.
  • Serve: Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Serve warm with chips, bread, or veggies.

Notes

  • For a crispy topping, broil the dip for 2-3 minutes at the end of baking.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave.
  • To freeze, wrap the unbaked or baked dip tightly and store for up to 2 months. Thaw in the fridge before reheating.
  • Experiment with cheese options like Gruyere or sharp cheddar for a unique flavor twist.
