Ingredients Spinach Artichoke Dip jpg
  • Artichoke – Canned or marinated artichoke is the best for this recipe. Just make sure that you drain them well and roughly chop them. Fresh spinach should also be cooked before incorporating it into the recipe.
  • Spinach – if you’re using frozen spinach, make sure you thaw it completely, then squeeze well before adding it to the mixture.
  • Cream Cheese – use room temperature cream cheese to mix well. Full fat or low fat cream cheese are fantastic options here.
  • Sour Cream – or use Greek yogurt instead.
  • Mayonnaise – helps to make this dip incredibly creamy.
  • Garlic Cloves – fresh garlic is always the best option for this recipe since it gives an intense flavor.
  • Parmesan & Mozzarella Cheese – this is definitely my favorite cheese combo for the best flavor.
  • Salt&Pepper – to taste.

How To Make Spinach Artichoke Dip

You will be surprised to see how easy making this spinach artichoke dip is. Here is everything you have to do:

  1. First, defrost the frozen spinach and squeeze out all of the liquid. Then drain and cut the artichoke hearts as you want.
  2. Add all the ingredients to a mixing bowl and combine them well.
  3. Spray a baking dish with a cooking spray, add the dip mixture and sprinkle the parmesan and mozzarella.
  4. Bake the dip for 25-30 minutes or until golden on top.

Tips and Variations

  • Sprinkle some bacon or green onions on top to make it more flavorful. 
  • Add some red pepper flakes to the mix for a spicier taste.
  • Drain the brine from the artichoke hearts thoroughly. If the outside leaves are tough, remove them since they become chewy after cooking.
  • To get a better result, buy blocks of cheese and shred them yourself.

  • Freezer- Unfortunately, this spinach artichoke dip is not freezer friendly because it contains dairy products that may curdle when frozen.
  • Reheating- Reheat in the microwave for a few seconds until warmed through.
