Ingredients
-
8 oz cream cheese, reduced fat is ok
-
16 oz light sour cream
-
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter
-
1 1/2 cups shredded Parmesan cheese
-
14 oz canned quartered artichoke hearts, drained and coarsely chopped
-
4 oz canned diced jalapeños, drained
-
10 oz frozen spinach, thawed and drained
-
2–3 garlic cloves, pressed
Instructions
-
In a medium pot over medium heat, combine the cream cheese, sour cream, butter, and Parmesan cheese. Stir frequently until fully melted and smooth. The mixture should start to bubble gently.
-
Stir in the chopped artichokes, drained jalapeños, and drained spinach (make sure to squeeze out all excess water from the spinach!).
-
Press in the garlic cloves and stir everything together until well combined.
-
Serve hot with tortilla chips, crackers, or toasted baguette slices.
-
Optional: For a golden-browned top, broil the dip for 2–3 minutes before serving!
Notes
-
Spinach Tip: Really squeeze out as much water as possible from the thawed spinach to avoid a watery dip!
-
Cheese Lovers: Feel free to mix in some shredded mozzarella or Monterey Jack for extra gooeyness.
-
Spicy Lovers: Add a dash of hot sauce or crushed red pepper flakes for an extra kick.
-
Make-Ahead: You can prepare this dip in advance, refrigerate it, and reheat it gently when ready to serve!
