How to Make This Addictive Recipe for Artichoke Dip With Spinach

Ingredients to Make Hot Spinach Artichoke Dip

This recipe for hot spinach artichoke dip is the best I’ve ever had and I try not to deviate from the ingredients listed (unless of course, I want to make it a healthier version to cut back on the calories).

Directions to Make Creamy Artichoke Dip with Spinach

  • Mix mayo, cream cheese, cheeses, hot sauce, salt and pepper in mixing bowl.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Heat extra virgin olive oil over medium heat.
  • Add onions and cook until soft and translucent.
  • Add garlic and saute until garlic releases it’s odor (about 30 seconds).
  • Then add spinach and cook down.
  • Next add artichoke, saute for a few minutes to heat up.
  • Remove from heat, add cheese mixture and mix well.
  • Add to greased baking dish.
  • Top with additional shaved parmesan cheese.
  • Cover and bake for 30 minutes until cheese is bubbly.
  • Remove from oven and serve immediately with crackers, crusty bread, pretzel chips, or fresh vegetables.

Serving Suggestions

This dip is incredibly versatile and can be enjoyed hot or cold. However, I highly recommend serving it hot and bubbly right out of the oven. The melted mozzarella and Parmesan create a gooey, irresistible topping that perfectly complements the creamy spinach and artichoke filling.

Serve it with a variety of dippers, such as:

  • Tortilla chips
  • Pita bread
  • Sliced baguette
  • Crackers
  • Fresh vegetables (carrots, celery, bell peppers)

Storing and Freezing Your Creamy Spinach Artichoke Dip

Storing Your Dip

This creamy spinach artichoke dip is best enjoyed fresh and hot from the oven, but it can also be stored in the refrigerator for later. In general, it will last for about 4-5 days in an airtight container. However, in my experience, it’s usually devoured long before then!

Freezing Your Dip

While mayonnaise-based dips don’t typically freeze well, this recipe relies on cream cheese for its creamy texture. If you’d like to try freezing it, transfer it to an airtight container before popping it in the freezer. It should last up to 3 months. I haven’t tried freezing it myself, as there’s rarely any leftover! But if you do, let me know how it turns out.
