Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 cups fresh spinach leaves
- 3 whole garlic cloves
- 8 ounces cream cheese
- 1 cup sour cream
- 0.5 cup mayonnaise
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 0.5 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
Instructions
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves. Add them to the skillet and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant but not browned.
Add the fresh spinach leaves to the skillet, stirring frequently, and cook for 2-3 minutes or until wilted. Remove the skillet from the heat and allow the mixture to cool slightly.
While cooling, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, sour cream, and mayonnaise. Mix until smooth and creamy.
Stir in the Parmesan cheese, mozzarella cheese, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using).
Chop the cooled spinach and garlic mixture finely and add it to the cheese mixture. Stir until evenly combined.
Transfer the mixture to an oven-safe baking dish and spread it out evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, or until the top is bubbly and slightly golden.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving with chips, crackers, or fresh veggies. Enjoy!
