Artichoke Spinach Dip

This baked hot artichoke spinach dip is easy to make in about 30 minutes. It’s so cheesy and perfect for holiday and game day entertaining.

I’m all about the appetizers and snacks – no matter the time of year. I just can’t get enough! I would much rather snack and graze than sit down for a full meal. It’s so much easier if you ask me.

So, this artichoke spinach dip is one of my favorite dips to serve at holiday parties or any time of year. It’s so easy to make.

With just 5 minutes of prep before popping it in the oven, it makes it perfect for any type of gathering. Serve with tortilla chips, crackers, or veggies.

I have made plenty of hot-dip recipes in my time. I even have a Vegan Spinach Artichoke Dip that we make for game day or race day quite frequently.

But we found a new favorite steak house here close to home and they have literally the best hot spinach dip I have ever had. So – as I usually do, I set out to break the recipe so we could have it all the time here at home.

This recipe is pretty darn close – which makes it positively irresistible. I know you’ll love it!

Easy Artichoke Spinach Dip

Here are some commonly asked questions

Can I use fresh spinach?

Yes, absolutely, fresh spinach will work just fine. Just be sure to wash it & wring out any excess moisture before proceeding with the preparation.

How many can this serve?

Since this is a dip and most people just sort of graze when it comes to appetizers like this – you should be able to serve this to a party for 8-10 people. That is assuming this isn’t the only thing on the menu. If that is the case, I can tell you that our family of adult appetites can finish this off by the time game day is over.

What flavor variations can be made with this?

I love this recipe because of its versatility and how many different ways we can change it up. Try mixing in diced green chilies, jalapenos, hot sauce, rotisserie chicken, ground or smoked sausage, chili powder, paprika, diced bell or sweet peppers and so much more.

Can this dip be made ahead of time?

Yes, I do it often. I usually mix all of the ingredients, transfer them to the baking dish, and then refrigerate until closer to game time. Then I pop it in the oven when we are just about ready to serve everything else. This way it comes out hot and ready to enjoy immediately.

Can you freeze spinach dip?

Because of the dairy in the recipe, I don’t recommend freezing this dip. It can be made 1-2 days ahead of time and refrigerated until ready to use. Then just reheat in the microwave when you want to serve again.

Recipe for Artichoke Spinach Dip

Ingredients for Artichoke Spinach Dip

• artichoke hearts – drained and chopped
• cream cheese – room temperature
• frozen spinach – thawed and drained
• shredded Italian cheese blend
• mayonnaise
• garlic – minced
• dried basil
• shredded mozzarella cheese

Can this recipe be doubled?

You can, and we do it often. But be sure to distribute the mixture between 2 baking dishes instead of trying to get it all into one small one or into one larger one. That will change the baking time too much.

Can this recipe be made with another type of cheese?

Yes – this recipe is great when you use other types of cheese. Try using pepper jack, Colby-Jack, American, or even smoked gouda.

Can this be made with Greek yogurt instead of mayo?

You bet! If you want to lighten up the recipe – you can swap out the mayo with plain Greek yogurt. You can also use low-fat cream cheese – just keep in mind that the less fat you have in the recipe, the less creamy it will be. The fat is a large component of the texture of the end product.
