Ingredients

• 4 cups Fresh spinach
• 14 ounces Canned artichoke hearts
• 8 ounces Cream cheese
• 0.5 cup Sour cream
• 0.25 cup Mayonnaise
• 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
• 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
• 2 medium Jalapeños (seeded and finely chopped)
• 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoon Red pepper flakes
• 0.5 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a medium-sized baking dish lightly with olive oil or non-stick spray.

Step 2

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and chopped jalapeños, cooking until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.

Step 3

Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and sauté until wilted. This should take about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.

Step 4

Drain and chop the canned artichoke hearts into small pieces. Make sure to pat them dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.

Step 5

In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, red pepper flakes, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth and well combined.

Step 6

Fold in the sautéed spinach, artichoke hearts, and the jalapeño-garlic mixture, ensuring the ingredients are evenly distributed.

Step 7

Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.

Step 8

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

Step 9

Once baked, remove from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before serving.

Step 10

Serve warm with tortilla chips, toasted baguette slices, or fresh vegetables for dipping.
