Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups fresh spinach
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup sour cream
- 0.5 cup mayonnaise
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional for heat)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the fresh spinach and sauté until wilted, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Once cool, squeeze out excess moisture using a clean kitchen towel or paper towels, and finely chop the spinach.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, and mayonnaise. Stir until smooth and well mixed.
Add the chopped spinach, shredded mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using) to the bowl. Mix until all ingredients are evenly combined.
Transfer the mixture to an oven-safe baking dish (about 8 inches in diameter or a similar size). Use a spatula to spread the mixture out evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the dip is hot and bubbly, and the top is slightly golden.
Remove from the oven and allow the dip to cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve warm with tortilla chips, crackers, sliced baguette, or fresh vegetable crudités. Enjoy!
