Hot Artichoke and Spinach Dip

Tue, 30 Sep 2008 by Christy {The Girl Who Ate Everything}

Everyone has a staple dish that they bring to get-togethers. This is my staple. This dip is so good that even stands up to John Beck’s refined palate. Seriously, I always make this when he comes over because I know he will at least eat THIS if I make it.

My mom wanted to make this for a family get together and called me for the recipe. I called her after to ask if it turned out.

She said, “It was really good, but I’ve never made a dip with 4 cups of mayo in it.”

I said, “Uh mom, I told you 1/4 cup mayo.”

Mom said in her sweet voice, “Oh…well, it was still really good!”

Here’s your new staple thanks to Pampered Chef for the recipe. Give your arteries a break and stick to the 1/4 c. mayo.

    This is one of my favorite dips! Believe it or not, I’ve actually never made it myself but I always gobble it right up and friends’ parties :) I think your post convinced me to give it a go!

    I don’t cook much, but it says 1 garlic clove, pressed. What does pressed mean?

    Anonymous,
    There’s actually a tool that you insert the garlic clove into and it squishes the garlic into a paste. I usually just use minced garlic because it’s what I have on hand. It comes in a jar and stays good for a long time. It can be found in the produce section of your grocery store. A 1/2 teaspoon of minced garlic is equal to a clove of garlic.

    Thanks,
    Christy

    Yummy! I am hosting a reunion get together with some girlfriends this winter break, and this is definitely on the list!

    Quick question though, what kind of veggies to you usually serve with artichoke dip?

    @Nikki,
    Honestly I like chips best but you could dip carrots or broccoli in it if you wanted.
    Thanks,
    Christy
