Ingredients for Spinach Artichoke Dip
This spinach artichoke dip is pure creamy, cheesy goodness. It can be made ahead of time and it’s simple to make.
- Cream Cheese – Use a block of cream cheese – reduced fat can be used.
- Mayonnaise/Sour Cream – Mayonnaise and sour cream help make this dip scoopable. You can use light sour cream but for the best flavor, I recommend full-fat mayonnaise.
- Spinach – Use frozen chopped spinach, simply thaw and squeeze it dry. You can substitute fresh spinach for frozen.
- Artichokes – I prefer marinated artichokes over canned ones, as they have more flavor. If using canned (water-packed) artichokes, add a pinch of Italian seasoning or dried basil, along with an extra clove of garlic for flavor.
- Cheese – Three kinds of cheese are added for the perfect dip. Mozzarella is mild and makes this dip gooey and creamy while Gruyere and Parmesan add flavor. Swap Gruyere with Gouda or Swiss if needed.

Tips for A Great Spinach Artichoke Dip
- Mix with a hand mixer to incorporate air and make a softer, smoother dip.
- To thaw spinach quickly, place it in a fine mesh strainer and run hot water over it.
- To drain the spinach, squeeze it dry (I just use my hands) or press it into the strainer. Remove as much water as possible.
Serving Suggestions
In addition to crackers, pita chips, tortilla chips, or vegetables, you can serve this spinach artichoke dip with almost any type of bread.rnrnIf you happen to have flour tortillas on hand, they make great dippers once baked in the oven! Lightly brush them with olive oil (or melted butter) and season them with a pinch of salt and garlic powder. Bake at 350°F for 8-10 minutes or until lightly browned and crisp.
If you’re looking for a fresh crunch (or to keep this low carb), carrots, celery, mini bell peppers, or cucumbers are also great dippers!

The Best Spinach Artichoke Dip
This is my favorite Spinach Artichoke dip recipe. It’s easy to make and always a huge hit!
-
Preheat the oven to 375°F.
-
In a medium bowl add cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, and garlic. Beat on medium speed with a hand mixer until fluffy.
-
Gently fold in the parmesan cheese, 1 cup mozzarella cheese, gruyere cheese, spinach, and artichokes.
-
Spread the dip into a 9×9 casserole dish (or deep dish pie plate) and top with the remaining ½ cup mozzarella cheese.
-
Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until bubbly and the cheese is browned. Rest 10 minutes before serving.
Slice a baguette into ½-inch slices. Lightly brush one side of each slice with olive oil. Place on a baking sheet and broil the oiled side for about 2 minutes or just until lightly browned.
- Mixing with a hand mixer makes a softer, smoother dip.
- To thaw the spinach quickly, place it in a fine mesh strainer and run hot water over it.
- To drain the spinach, squeeze it dry (I just use my hands) or press it into the strainer. Remove as much water as possible.
- To replace frozen spinach with fresh, cook 1lb of spinach. Cool slightly and squeeze dry. Chop and use as directed.
- Make this dip up to 48 hours ahead of time and bake before serving. If it’s chilled in the fridge, it might need an extra 5 minutes to cook.
