Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Thaw the frozen spinach and squeeze out any excess water using a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.
Drain and chop the canned artichoke hearts into small pieces.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, mayonnaise, and sour cream. Mix until smooth and well combined.
Stir in the Parmesan cheese, mozzarella cheese, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes (if using). Mix well.
Add the chopped spinach and artichoke hearts to the cheese mixture. Stir until evenly combined.
Transfer the mixture to a baking dish (about 8x8 inches or similar size) and spread it out into an even layer.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the dip is bubbling around the edges and lightly golden on top.
Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.
Serve warm with crackers, sliced baguette, tortilla chips, or fresh veggies for dipping.
