Ingredients

• 4 cups fresh spinach
• 1 cup artichoke hearts (canned or jarred, drained and chopped)
• 8 ounces cream cheese (softened)
• 0.5 cup sour cream
• 0.25 cup mayonnaise
• 4 cloves roasted garlic cloves (mashed)
• 0.5 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• 0.5 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon olive oil
• 0 bread, crackers, or fresh vegetable sticks (for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a small baking dish with olive oil and set aside.

Step 2

Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add a splash of olive oil and cook the spinach until wilted, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and allow the spinach to cool slightly, then squeeze out any excess moisture using a clean kitchen towel or paper towels. Chop the spinach finely.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, and mayonnaise. Mix until smooth and creamy.

Step 4

Stir in the roasted garlic, Parmesan cheese, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to distribute the flavors evenly.

Step 5

Fold in the chopped spinach, artichoke hearts, and half of the shredded mozzarella cheese. Stir until all ingredients are well combined.

Step 6

Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly. Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella cheese over the top.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the dip is hot and bubbly and the top is golden and slightly crisp.

Step 8

Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before serving. Serve warm with bread, crackers, or fresh vegetable sticks of your choice.
