A creamy, cheesy spinach and artichoke dip perfect for Super Bowl parties and casual get-togethers. This easy recipe blends fresh spinach, artichokes, and melty cheeses for a crowd-pleasing snack.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 10 ounces fresh baby spinach (about 280 grams)
  • 1 can (14 ounces/400 grams) artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • ½ cup sour cream (120 ml)
  • ¼ cup mayonnaise (60 ml)
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese (50 grams)
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (100 grams), divided
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice (15 ml)
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Red pepper flakes (optional, a pinch)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and cook for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
  3. Add fresh spinach and cook until wilted, about 3-4 minutes. Drain excess moisture by pressing spinach with a spoon or paper towel.
  4. Chop drained artichoke hearts into bite-sized pieces. For smoother texture, pulse briefly in a food processor (optional).
  5. In a large mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, sour cream, and mayonnaise. Stir until smooth and uniform.
  6. Add lemon juice, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes if using. Mix well.
  7. Fold in grated Parmesan, half of the shredded mozzarella, sautéed spinach, and chopped artichokes. Mix gently but thoroughly.
  8. Spread the mixture evenly in an 8×8 inch baking dish. Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella cheese on top.
  9. Bake for 20-25 minutes until the top is bubbly and lightly golden.
  10. Let the dip cool for 5-10 minutes before serving to thicken.

Notes

Do not overcook spinach to avoid excess moisture. Use room temperature cream cheese and mayo for smooth mixing. If dip is too thick before baking, add a splash of milk or cream. Let dip rest after baking to thicken for easier scooping. Can prepare mixture a day ahead and bake fresh before serving.
