  • Recipe: Three Cheese Spinach-Artichoke Dip

    Cheesy Spinach-Artichoke Dip

    I love making this dip whenever I have friends over.  It’s easy to make (just pop all the ingredients into a crock-pot a couple of hours before your gathering), and it tastes great with anything (tortilla chips, pita bread, baguettes, even baby carrots).

    Yield:
    10-12 servings

    Ingredients:
    1 – 250g package of cream cheese
    1 – 175mL jar of marinated artichoke hearts (drained and chopped)
    1 – 285g package of frozen chopped spinach (thawed and drained)
    1/4 cup sour cream
    1/2 cup mozzarella cheese
    1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
    2 cloves garlic (minced)
    1/4 tsp salt

    Directions:

    1. In a large bowl, mix the the cream cheese with the sour cream with a wooden spatula until well blended.
    2. To the mixture, add in the cheeses, garlic, salt.
    3. Fold in the artichokes and spinach.
    4. Pour mixture into a pre-heated crock-pot/slow cooker, cover and cook on HIGH for about 2 hours.
    5. Serve with slightly toasted sliced baguettes, pita bread, white corn tortilla chips, your favourite veggies or crackers.
