Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 oz cream cheese
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 10 oz spinach, frozen and thawed
- 12 oz artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
- 8 oz lump crab meat
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tsp hot sauce
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 0.25 tsp black pepper
- 1 tbsp olive oil or cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Prepare the baking dish by greasing it lightly with olive oil or spraying with cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, sour cream, and mayonnaise. Mix well until smooth and creamy.
Stir in the grated Parmesan, shredded mozzarella, and minced garlic.
Squeeze any excess moisture out of the thawed spinach using a clean kitchen towel or paper towels. Add the spinach to the bowl.
Gently fold in the chopped artichoke hearts and crab meat, being careful not to break the crab meat into small pieces.
Add the lemon juice, hot sauce, salt, and black pepper. Stir until all the ingredients are evenly combined.
Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the dip is bubbling and the top is lightly golden.
Remove from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve warm with crackers, sliced baguette, tortilla chips, or fresh vegetable sticks.
