CREAMY SPINACH AND ARTICHOKE DIP
Okay, I know everyone has a spinach artichoke dip. Heck, I even already have this Spinach Artichoke Dip.
But as soon as I tasted this Creamy Spinach and Artichoke Dip at my friend Kendee’s house on Christmas, I knew I had found a new favorite. I could not stop eating this.
My other dip calls for creamed spinach, which I don’t always have on hand. I loved that this recipe uses ingredients that I almost always have on hand.
You can use frozen spinach or fresh. I love the taste of fresh and always have it on hand. I think I need a bigger bowl though to stir it all together. Don’t worry, the spinach cooks down while baking.

Sounds amazing! Can’t wait to prepare it myself!
Make this in a bread bowl! Amazing! I don’t use sour cream tho. Thanks for the recipe!
Hi… Can you mix and freeze ahead and then bake..
Sure! I don’t see why not.
I was wondering what the pictures of the stuffed chicken had to do with the artichoke dip. Did you stuff student chicken with the dip?
I’m sorry but I’m not seeing pictures of stuffed chicken anywhere. Can you enlighten me?
What is the recipe for whats showed in the picture the stuffed chicken?
I’m not sure if I understand your question? The recipe is for spinach dip. Do you see a chicken somewhere?
I made this dip for Thanksgiving. It was a huge hit! Easy to make. I baked it in a small Le Creuset casserole dish. Definetly will make this again.
Can you mix this up a day or two ahead and then cook it when you are ready for it?
Yes, absolutely!
What size baking dish should this go in?
It can go in a pie dish or a 1.5L dish…
Could this be made in a crock pot?
Sure! I don’t see why not.
I wonder if some prosciutto or other salty ham would go with this?
Sure! Sounds good.
How much does this recipe yield? Going to a party of 15-20 people and want to bring it as an app.
I would say it serves about 8. I would definitely double it for 15-20.
What kind of mayonnaise is best for this recipe? I have all kinds on hand right now. I would love to make this soon. I have some pita chips and can’t wait to try this recipe.
Any mayo will do!
Could I omit the mayo? I have family members that are allergic.
Yes! The amount is so small that I don’t think it should make a huge difference at all.
Make it as an appetizer for a family birthday. Absolute hit! Everyone wanted to know the recipe.
Made this for the first time tonight, it was delicious!! I used only 10 oz. of artichoke hearts and that was more than enough for the recipe.
I made this yesterday. It was the BOMB. Thanks for sharing. 🙂
Spinach dip is the best. I almost never buy sour cream but I just happen to have some on hand…my parallel path leads to this dip too, haha…
Chalk full of goodness! Yum!
Try it with out mayo and add white wine. It’s rally good on burgers too.
Sounds yummy! Gotta try this.
That looks so good! My husband would love this.
Yum…I could totally go for some of this right now! It is very similar to my recipe, though mine does not have cream cheese! I might have to add that next time 🙂
