Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add olive oil. Add fresh spinach to the skillet and sauté until wilted, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly. Once cooled, squeeze out any excess liquid and roughly chop.

Step 3

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

Step 4

Stir in the minced garlic, grated Parmesan cheese, shredded mozzarella cheese, salt, black pepper, and optional red pepper flakes.

Step 5

Fold in the chopped spinach and artichoke hearts, mixing until evenly combined.

Step 6

Transfer the mixture to a 2-quart baking dish, spreading it out evenly.

Step 7

Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the dip is hot and bubbly with a golden crust on top.

Step 8

Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before serving.

Step 9

Serve warm with tortilla chips, toasted baguette slices, or fresh vegetable sticks.
