    Because of this spinach artichoke dip and my popular hot crab dip, I’m pretty much the golden girl at every party. Cream cheese and mozzarella cheese are a must for this recipe.

    This is definitely one of my favorite dips because it’s super creamy and delicious but also loaded with spinach and artichokes. Of course, I had to recreate this dish after having it at a restaurant near my house.

    Want to use fresh artichokes instead of canned? Here is a great article on how to clean, trim, and prepare fresh artichokes. Spinach artichoke dip can be easily prepared and baked in under 25 minutes.

    Although this makes a great appetizer, it can also be served as a side dish. Serve this dip with tortilla chips, crackers, or bread.

    Ingredients You’ll Need for Spinach Artichoke Dip Recipe: 

    • Frozen or Fresh Spinach
    • Garlic
    • Softened Cream Cheese
    • Mayo
    • Sour Cream
    • Mozzarella Cheese
    • Parmesan Cheese
    • Artichokes
    • Salt and Pepper

    How to Make Easy Spinach Artichoke Dip: 

    The easiest dip you will ever make, all you have to do is combine the spinach, artichokes, garlic, mayo, sour cream, parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper in a bowl and mix until well combined.

    Cook Tips and Recipe Variations: 

    • For convenience, use frozen spinach. Make sure you thaw it and squeeze dry.
    • If using fresh spinach, you may saute it with olive oil and garlic before adding in the other ingredients.
    • Bake the spinach artichoke dip on a baking sheet in case it bubbles over and also it’s easier to pull out of the oven.
    • You may prep ahead, prepare this dip ahead of time and keep it in the fridge until it’s time to bake.
    • Not a fan of artichokes? Mushrooms make a great substitute.

    What type of artichokes should I use?

    I used canned artichokes which I roughly chopped and squeezed dry. However, you may use marinated jar artichokes if you prefer.

     

    Should I use fresh or frozen spinach?

    I recommend using whatever you have on hand although frozen spinach is super convenient.
