Make a batch of this Spinach Artichoke Dip for your next get together and watch the smiling faces crowd around with a chip in hand.
This easy Spinach Artichoke Dip recipe is a long-time favorite for so many. Slightly adapted from Perfect One Dish Dinners by Pam Anderson (one of my favorite cookbooks, by the way), this dip is warm and cheesy and full of great flavor. If you’re hosting a party, this dip is an excellent party food, and it makes a perfect appetizer to pack along for potlucks, gatherings, or tailgating. Plus, since there is spinach and artichokes involved, you can sort of count it as nutritious, at least partially. I guarantee this cheesy goodness will disappear very quickly. You may even want to go ahead and make a double batch.
This scrumpdilicious Spinach Artichoke Dip can easily be prepared a day or two ahead of party time. The ingredients are fairly basic: cream cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream, grated Parmesan, shredded mozzarella, Italian seasonings, garlic powder, ground black pepper, salt, frozen chopped spinach, canned artichoke hearts. Most of the ingredients can be kept stocked and ready for impromptu entertaining. To prepare, mix all the ingredients together and refrigerate covered until ready to bake. When ready to bake, pop it in the oven uncovered until it has reached bubbly gooeyness. Once baked, it should be kept in a warm oven until ready to serve, as it is best served warm and melty.
