🤤 Creamy Spinach and Artichoke Dip Recipe

What You’ll Need:

  • 1 cup of fresh spinach (or about 1/2 a cup if using frozen)
  • 1 can (14 oz) of artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
  • 1 cup of cream cheese (softened, like a cozy blanket)
  • 1/2 cup of sour cream (or Greek yogurt if you wanna feel fancy)
  • 1/2 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese (because cheese is life)
  • 1/4 cup of grated Parmesan cheese (the fancy stuff)
  • 2 cloves of garlic, minced (you know, to keep the vampires away)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional: a sprinkle of red pepper flakes for a kick 💥

Cooking Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This is where the magic begins. We want it nice and toasty in there!

  3. Add in the spinach, artichokes, and garlic. Give it a good mix until everything is well combined. It’s like your ingredients are having a little dance party! 🎶

  1. Season it! Sprinkle in some salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes if you’re feeling spicy. Remember, a little goes a long way, so don’t get too wild!

  2. Transfer the mixture into a baking dish. Spread it out evenly like you’re laying down a fresh coat of paint. 🎨

  3. Bake for about 25-30 minutes until it’s bubbling and golden on top. This is the hardest part—waiting! You might want to set a timer to avoid burning your house down. 😉

  1. Serve it up! Grab some tortilla chips, veggies, or even bread. Dip in and enjoy the cheesy goodness while pretending you’re a gourmet chef. Don’t forget to share (or not, no judgment here)!
