Ingredients

10 oz. frozen chopped spinach
8 oz. cream cheese regular or reduced fat OK
½ cup plain Greek yogurt 132g
¼ teaspoon fine kosher salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon onion powder
¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
14 oz. artichoke hearts drained and chopped
1 ½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese 195g, divided
¼ cup grated parmesan cheese 26g

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375°F. Spray an oven-safe (1.5-2 qt.) baking dish with nonstick cooking spray, and set aside.
In the microwave, cook the frozen spinach with 1-2 tablespoons of additional water until cooked through, about 5-7 minutes depending on the strength of your microwave.
Place the cooked spinach in a colander or a fine mesh strainer, and drain all the excess water.
In a large bowl, add the cooked spinach, cream cheese, Greek yogurt, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, red pepper flakes and chopped, drained artichoke hearts. Stir until combined.
Add 1 cup of the mozzarella cheese and the parmesan, stirring to combine.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish.
Sprinkle the additional ½ cup of mozzarella cheese on top.
Bake the dip for 20-25 minutes, or until hot and bubbly.
Serve with your favorite crackers (or bread), chips or veggies and enjoy!

Notes

This recipe originally appeared on Kathryn’s Kitchen Blog and was adapted very slightly.

Make ahead tip: Cook the spinach, and mix the ingredients together the night before. Transfer to the baking dish, then cover with plastic wrap and keep in the fridge until you’re ready to bake the next day. Add an additional 10 minutes (or a little more) to the cooking time so that the dip is nice and gooey!

How to store: Store leftover dip in the fridge in an airtight container for 3-5 days.

How to reheat: Microwave or place the dip back in the oven to heat through. However, this Spinach Artichoke Dip is delicious cold or hot!
