Ingredients
Scale
Dip Base
- 8 oz. cream cheese, well softened
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1 garlic clove, minced (about 1 tsp)
- 2/3 cup (76g) finely shredded parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup (56g) finely shredded mozzarella cheese
- Pepper, to taste
Vegetables
- 1 (14 oz) can quartered artichoke hearts, liquid drained and chopped
- 6 oz. frozen spinach, thawed and squeezed to drain excess liquid
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Prepare a small (1 quart) baking dish by spraying it with non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Mix Base Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, minced garlic, parmesan cheese, mozzarella cheese, and pepper. Stir well until all ingredients are thoroughly blended.
- Add Vegetables: Stir in the drained and chopped artichoke hearts along with the well-drained spinach. Mix evenly to incorporate the vegetables throughout the creamy base.
- Bake the Dip: Spread the mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish. Place it in the preheated oven and bake for about 20 minutes, or until the dip is heated through and melty.
- Serve Warm: Remove the dip from the oven and serve immediately while warm and creamy. Pair it with tortilla chips, crackers, or toasted baguette slices for dipping.
