Fold in the drained spinach and grated parmesan cheese until evenly incorporated.

Transfer the mixture to a small saucepan and heat over low-medium heat for 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently, until the dip is warm and the parmesan is melted.

Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.

Serve warm or at room temperature with crackers, sliced bread, or fresh vegetable sticks for dipping.
