On the hunt for a tried and true appetizer? Stop right here!

May we suggest our Spinach Artichoke Dip? A classic dish with no wacky ingredients… Just simple, savory goodness that’s sure to please a crowd — and that’s a fact. 

We once made this dish in front of someone who doesn’t like spinach (a pretty important part of the dip, you have to admit) and he offered to try it. Guess what… He liked it! (#win)

So now that you know it’s been taste-tested — and approved — by a spinach skeptic, don’t be afraid to add these ingredients to your shopping cart! This dip is perfect for parties, game nights, or just something to snack on throughout the week.

Can I use variants of the ingredients listed?

Spinach

If you opt for fresh spinach instead of frozen,  cook it before adding it to the mix. If you’re going to stick to the frozen spinach, thawing and draining it is key. You don’t want anything getting in the way of the good stuff.

Cheese

Grated parmesan cheese rather than shredded will also get the job done. We had to do this once when the grocery store was out of the shredded version, and didn’t notice a difference in texture.

Garlic

While sometimes it’s worth it to not cut any corners and sacrifice quality or flavor, this isn’t necessarily one of those times. The dip will still taste good whether you use pre-peeled garlic, minced/jarred garlic, or peel and mince it all yourself. 

The Final Product

As with everything from the oven, use caution before taking a bite. Let the dip cool off for a little bit, and then enjoy. 

The delectable duo — spinach and artichoke — fail to disappoint once again. They work so well together without overpowering anything. The mellow creaminess from the cream cheese, sour cream, and mayo mixture makes a great base and the parmesan adds a nice pop. 

Enjoy!!
