Spinach Artichoke Dip

Spinach artichoke dip became a fixture of American restaurant appetizer menus in the 1990s, though its roots trace to earlier hot cheese dips served at California and Midwestern gatherings. It exploded in popularity alongside the rise of casual dining chains, becoming one of the most-ordered starters in the country by the early 2000s.

Warm, creamy, and endlessly dippable

Chopped spinach and artichoke hearts are folded into a rich, cheesy base and baked until bubbling for the ultimate crowd-pleasing dip.

Step by stepInstructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 190°C.
  2. Squeeze the spinach dry and combine with the artichokes in a bowl.
  3. Mix in the cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, garlic, and half the mozzarella and parmesan.
  4. Season with salt and pepper, then spread into a baking dish.
  5. Top with the remaining cheese and bake 20-25 minutes until golden and bubbly.
  6. Serve warm with tortilla chips or toasted baguette slices.

💡 Chef tips & storage

Squeezing every bit of moisture from the spinach keeps the dip from turning watery. A dash of hot sauce or red pepper flakes adds a nice kick.
