Delicious Spinach and Artichoke Dip

spinach-artichoke-dip

Spinach Artichoke dip is one of my favorite dips and with the Super Bowl coming up this weekend, I thought I’d share my recipe with y’all. It’s easy and absolutely tonguegasmic, if you serve this, you’ll definitely be your party’s MVP.

Spinach Artichoke Dip

  • 1 C chopped Artichoke Hearts (I use canned)
  • 1/2 C chopped frozen spinach, thawed
  • 8 oz cream cheese
  • 1/2 C fresh grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 tsp red pepper flakes
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced or pressed (or more if you’re a super garlic lover)
  • salt and pepper, to taste
  1. Cover the spinach and artichoke hearts with just enough water to cover, boil over medium heat until tender. (roughly, 10 minutes) Drain when done.
  2. In a saucepan over medium heat, saute the garlic in just a hint of olive oil, when the garlic becomes a bit translucent and yummy smelling, add the cream cheese and heat until it’s hot.
  3. Add the spinach artichoke mixture and the spices, mix well.

Serve with fritos scoops (my choice) or pieces of toasted bread or your favorite dipping ‘tool’

What are you serving this Super Bowl weekend?

    This sounds awesome! I’m a recent vegan and I think I could come up with an awesome adaptation of this recipe! Thanks for posting and for hosting this carnival. You’re on my sidebar list of carnivals! Have a great one!

    I shouldn’t read things like this late at night! That sounds so yummy. Will definitely make that this week – you know, to test it before the Super Bowl. :-)

    I love this because there is no mayo. Most versions I have seen have the mayo and I hate mayo–esp. when it’s a ’sit out’ dip!
    Thanks!
