Ingredients

• 10 oz Frozen chopped spinach
• 14 oz Canned artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
• 8 oz Cream cheese, softened
• 0.5 cup Mayonnaise
• 0.5 cup Sour cream
• 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
• 0.5 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1 tbsp Minced garlic
• 1 tsp Salt
• 0.5 tsp Black pepper
• 0.25 tsp Crushed red pepper flakes (optional, for heat)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Thaw the frozen chopped spinach by running it under warm water or microwaving it for a minute. Squeeze out excess water using a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream, grated Parmesan cheese, and minced garlic. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well combined.

Step 4

Gently fold in the drained, chopped artichoke hearts and the thawed, dried spinach. Mix thoroughly.

Step 5

Season the mixture with salt, black pepper, and optional red pepper flakes for a touch of heat. Stir again to ensure even seasoning.

Step 6

Transfer the mixture to an oven-safe baking dish. Spread it out evenly for consistent cooking.

Step 7

Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly on top of the mixture.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the dip is bubbling and the cheese on top is golden brown.

Step 9

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

Step 10

Serve warm with tortilla chips, slices of bread, or fresh vegetables for dipping.
