Ingredients
- 10 ounces frozen chopped spinach
- 8 ounces cream cheese
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 cloves minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
Thaw the frozen chopped spinach by placing it in a microwave-safe bowl and microwaving on high for about 2-3 minutes. Drain and squeeze out as much liquid as possible.
Step 3
In a medium-sized skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Remove from heat.
Step 4
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, sautéed garlic, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Stir until well-mixed and creamy.
Step 5
Add the drained and squeezed spinach to the mixture and stir until evenly combined.
Step 6
Transfer the spinach mixture into a baking dish (approximately 8x8 inches or similar size). Spread it out evenly with a spatula.
Step 7
Place the baking dish into the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the dip is hot and bubbly with a lightly golden top.
Step 8
Once baked, remove the dish from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes. Sprinkle chopped fresh parsley on top for garnish, if desired.
Step 9
Serve warm with tortilla chips, crusty bread, or fresh vegetables for dipping. Enjoy!
