I really like appetizers. Emma and I’ve been recognized to order what we name “appetizer feasts” once we exit for dinner, so we strive extra apps and skip the principle course. They’re delish! As we speak I’m excited to share my very own recipe for my favourite basic appetizers: spinach artichoke dip!
I’ve been making this spinach and artichoke dip for years and years now and the recipe hasn’t actually modified. It’s a basic for a cause! If you’re internet hosting or want a terrific baked dip to take to a celebration do this.
Associated: Subsequent up strive our Buffalo Rooster Dip, a creamy and spicy baked dip.

Elements
- Spinach – frozen spinach is what I at all times use
- Artichoke hearts
- Cream cheese
- Mayo
- Bitter cream- or greek yogurt
- Parmesan cheese
- Garlic
- Crimson chili flakes
- Salt and pepper

Easy methods to make Spinach and Artichoke Dip
Thaw and drain the frozen spinach. If it’s not already chopped then finely chop. Drain the artichoke hearts and reduce into small items. Mince the garlic.
In a big bowl, mix the spinach, artichoke hearts, softened cream cheese, mayonnaise, bitter cream, half the parmesan cheese, garlic and crushed chili flakes. Season with salt and pepper.
Combine till the complete combination is evenly moist. Pour the combination into an eight inch forged iron skillet, sq. pan or pie dish. High with the remaining parmesan cheese.
Bake for half-hour at 350°F till bubbly and the highest is golden. Permit it to chill for 5 minutes earlier than serving.

Notes and Substitutions
- For a lighter model use decreased fats cream cheese, Miracle whip and low fats greek yogurt.
- I exploit all Parmesan cheese for this dip more often than not BUT if you happen to like a extra melty, sting-y cheese state of affairs be happy to substitute half the Parmesan for mozzarella.
- For those who don’t like spicy meals, omit the chili flakes or reduce them in half for one thing much less spicy.
- I wish to serve this dip with toasted baguette slices or heat pita however crackers or tortilla chips are nice as properly.

All of us pigged out on this throughout work at some point and later I used it to high a salad (SO good). Then I added some to a chunk of baked salmon (additionally actually good!) For those who don’t make this for a celebration, count on to have some leftovers. xo. Elsie
