Ingredients

Scale

Base Ingredients

  • 8 oz. cream cheese, well softened
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 garlic clove, minced (about 1 tsp)

Cheeses

  • 2/3 cup (76g) finely shredded parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup (56g) finely shredded mozzarella cheese

Vegetables

  • 1 (14 oz) can quartered artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
  • 6 oz. frozen spinach, thawed and squeezed to remove excess liquid

Seasoning

  • Pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly spray a small (1 quart) baking dish with non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  2. Mix the base ingredients and cheeses: In a medium mixing bowl, stir together the softened cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, minced garlic, finely shredded parmesan, shredded mozzarella, and pepper until fully combined and smooth.
  3. Add spinach and artichokes: Fold in the chopped and drained artichoke hearts along with the thawed, drained spinach, ensuring the mixture is evenly blended throughout.
  4. Transfer to baking dish and bake: Spread the prepared mixture evenly into the sprayed baking dish. Place in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 20 minutes, or until the dip is heated through and melted to a creamy consistency.
  5. Serve warm: Remove the dip from the oven and serve immediately while warm with your choice of tortilla chips, crackers, or toasted baguette slices for dipping.

Notes

  • This dip is incredibly rich and creamy, packed with cheesy goodness and wholesome veggies, making it a surefire crowd favorite.
  • Make sure to squeeze out excess liquid from the spinach and artichokes to avoid a watery dip.
  • The dip reheats well—simply warm it in the oven or microwave until melty again.
  • Feel free to customize by adding a pinch of red pepper flakes for a spicy kick or swapping cheeses based on preference.
