Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups Fresh spinach
- 1 cup Canned artichoke hearts (drained and chopped)
- 8 ounces Cream cheese (softened)
- 1 cup Sour cream
- 1 cup Mayonnaise
- 1 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 cloves Fresh garlic (minced)
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoons Crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Wash and chop the fresh spinach, then blanch it in boiling water for 1-2 minutes. Drain it thoroughly, squeezing out any excess water.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, and mayonnaise until smooth and well-blended.
Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese, shredded mozzarella cheese, minced garlic, salt, pepper, and optional red pepper flakes.
Add the prepared spinach and chopped artichoke hearts to the bowl, folding them in until evenly incorporated.
Transfer the mixture into an oven-safe baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
Bake the dip in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the edges are bubbling and the top is lightly golden brown.
Allow the dip to cool slightly before serving. Serve warm with tortilla chips, sliced baguette, crackers, or fresh vegetables for dipping.
