How To Make cheesy spinach & artichoke dip

  • Step 1
    Prep: Drain artichokes and spinach thoroughly of liquid. I like to add a pinch of sugar to the canned spinach because I find them more bitter than freshly prepared spinach. Finely chop yellow onion. Allow time for the cream cheese to get to room temperature.
  • Step 2
    In a large mixing bowl combine all ingredients and mix until incorporated. In a baking dish bake at 350 degrees covered for 45 minutes. Uncover, add additional cheese or parmesan cheese on top and continue to bake and additional 15 minutes until golden brown on top.
  • Step 3
    Serve hot with pita chips, crackers or veggies as a dip; or serve as a great side dish.
