Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 10 oz Frozen chopped spinach
- 8 oz Cream cheese
- 1 cup Sour cream
- 0.5 cup Mayonnaise
- 0.5 cup Shredded parmesan cheese
- 0.5 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp Lemon juice
- 0.25 tsp Red pepper flakes
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Black pepper
- 1 tsp Olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Thaw the frozen spinach and squeeze out as much excess water as possible using a clean kitchen towel or paper towel.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, sour cream, and mayonnaise. Mix well until smooth and creamy.
Add the squeezed spinach, shredded parmesan cheese, shredded mozzarella cheese, minced garlic, lemon juice, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Stir everything together thoroughly.
Lightly grease a small oven-safe baking dish with olive oil.
Spread the spinach dip mixture evenly into the prepared dish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the dip is hot and bubbly, with the edges starting to turn golden brown.
Carefully remove the dish from the oven and let the dip cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve the zesty spinach dip warm with tortilla chips, crackers, sliced baguette, or fresh vegetables.
