Ingredients
1 (10 oz) package frozen spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
1 (14 oz) can artichoke hearts, drained and roughly chopped
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup sour cream
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
Optional: red pepper flakes or hot sauce for heat
Optional topping: extra mozzarella or Parmesan for a golden crust
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Thaw spinach completely and squeeze out all excess moisture. Chop artichoke hearts roughly.
3. In a large bowl, mix cream cheese, sour cream, and mayonnaise until smooth.
4. Fold in spinach, artichokes, garlic, mozzarella, Parmesan, salt, and pepper. Add red pepper flakes or hot sauce if desired.
5. Spoon the mixture into an oven-safe dish and spread evenly. Top with extra cheese if using.
6. Bake for 20–25 minutes, until the top is golden and bubbly. For a crispier top, broil for 2–3 minutes at the end.
7. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy with chips, bread, or veggies.
Notes
For extra flavor, try adding lemon zest or Worcestershire sauce.
Assemble the dip in advance and bake when needed — perfect for entertaining.
Always drain spinach thoroughly to prevent a watery dip.
