Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 ounces Cream cheese
- 1 cup Sour cream
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup Shredded Parmesan cheese
- 10 ounces Frozen spinach, thawed and drained
- 6 slices Bacon, cooked and crumbled
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Green onions, chopped (optional garnish)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a baking dish by lightly greasing it with olive oil.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, sour cream, shredded mozzarella, and Parmesan cheeses. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Sauté the minced garlic in a small skillet with the olive oil over medium heat until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes. Add the garlic to the mixing bowl.
Squeeze out any excess water from the thawed spinach, then add the spinach to the mixing bowl.
Add the crumbled bacon, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Stir all the ingredients together until evenly distributed.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until the top is bubbly and lightly golden.
Remove the dish from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes. Optionally, sprinkle chopped green onions on top for garnish before serving.
Serve warm with crackers, toasted bread slices, or fresh vegetables for dipping.
