Awesome Spinach Artichoke Dip Recipes

Steps:

• Position a rack in the upper third of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Spray a 1-quart baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
• Put the cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise and garlic in a large bowl. Mix vigorously until combined and smooth. (If you prefer, you can use a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment.) Add the spinach to the cream cheese mixture, breaking it up as you add it. Add the artichokes, mozzarella and 1/2 cup of the Parmesan, mixing to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and top with the remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan.
• Bake until the dip begins to bubble, 20 to 25 minutes. Turn the oven to broil and continue to cook, keeping an eye on it so it doesn't burn, until the top is golden brown, about 5 minutes. Serve warm with crackers, chips or toasted bread.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a small baking dish.
• In a medium bowl, mix together cream cheese, mayonnaise, Parmesan cheese, Romano cheese, garlic, basil, garlic salt, salt and pepper. Gently stir in artichoke hearts and spinach.
• Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish. Top with mozzarella cheese. Bake in the preheated oven 25 minutes, until bubbly and lightly browned.

Steps:

• 1. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND DAY BEFORE PREP TO ALLOW FLAVORS TO ENHANCE!
• 2. Prep shallots by peeling and chopping in food processor. Rinse and drain shrimp and artichokes and then rough cut by hand. (You want small pieces so every bite gets some.) Pull stems & Julienne cut spinach, cover and put in refrigerator.
• 3. In a medium stock pot, combine half & half and wine and bring to a SLOW boil over a medium flame stirring frequently. Just before boiling, start the next step.
• 4. In a large high side rondo or skillet sauté butter and shallots until translucent.
• 5. Add the flour to the butter/shallot mixture mixing until all the flour is absorbed by the butter and cook for 2-3 minutes stirring constantly.
• 6. Add the heated half and half mixture once boiling, all at once, to the shallot mix, stirring constantly with a wire whip making sure there is no lumps.
• 7. Continue stirring while bringing the mixture back to a slow boil and cook for three minutes stirring constantly.
• 8. Add the shrimp, artichokes, sea salt, black pepper and cayenne pepper and bring to a boil. Cook for an additional 3 minutes until shrimp are thoroughly cooked stirring constantly so the mixture doesn't scorch.
• 9. Remove from heat and transfer to either one large shallow pan (2" deep) or two smaller shallow pans and let cool to room temp stirring occasionally to release the heat.
• 10. Cover and store in refrigerator overnight.
• 11. Once cooled and before baking, fold in spinach. Top with mozzarella and parmesan cheese and a couple of dashes of paprika for color and bake at 375 degrees until bubbling and cheese has browned a little. (You may need to put under the broiler for a few seconds once mix bubbles if cheese isn't browned)
• 12. Serve with bias cut French bread that has been drizzled with olive oil & toasted in 375 degree oven. Or crackers work too in a pinch, but I prefer hot bread.
• 13. Mangia!

Steps:

• Melt 3 tablespoons butter in a skillet over medium heat.
• Add the minced garlic and cook for a couple of minutes.
• Crank up the heat a bit and throw in the spinach. Stir around and cook for a couple of minutes until the spinach wilts.
• Remove the spinach from the skillet and put it in a small strainer. Squeeze the excess juice back into the skillet. Set the spinach aside.
• Throw in the artichokes and cook over medium high heat for several minutes, until liquid is cooked off and artichokes start to get a little color. Remove the artichokes.
• In the same skillet or a different pot, melt 3 additional tablespoons of butter and whisk in 3 tablespoons of flour until it makes a paste. Cook over medium-low for a minute or two, then pour in milk. Stir and cook until slightly thickened and splash in more milk if needed.
• Add cream cheese, feta, Parmesan, pepper jack, and cayenne and stir until cheese is melted and sauce is smooth. Chop artichokes and spinach and add to the sauce. Stir to combine.
• Pour into buttered baking dish. Top with extra grated pepper jack and bake at 375 for 15 minutes or until cheese is melted and bubbly.
• Serve with pita wedges, chips, or crackers.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/ gas 4. Lightly oil a small baking dish. Tip the defrosted spinach into a sieve set over the sink and press down with the back of a large spoon to remove as much liquid as possible. Set aside.
• Whisk the soft cheese, soured cream and mayonnaise together in a medium bowl until well-combined. Add the garlic, most of the cheeses, all the spinach and the artichokes. Season with black pepper and fold everything together to combine.
• Spoon the mixture into the baking dish and sprinkle over the remaining cheese. Will keep, covered in the fridge, for up to a day. Bake for 25-30 mins until bubbling and golden. If you like an extra-crisp top, flash under a hot grill for the final few minutes of cooking time. Leave to stand for 5 mins, then serve with tortilla chips and crudités.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Squeeze all of the moisture out of the thawed spinach (I use a potato ricer- it does a great job) and set aside.
• In heavy saucepan over medium heat, saute garlic and onion in butter until soft, about 15 or 20 minutes.
• Add flour and cook for 3 minutes.
• Slowly whisk in cream and stock and bring to a boil, stirring constantly.
• Once it starts boiling add lemon juice, hot sauce, salt, cayenne pepper and Romano Cheese, stirring until the cheese had melted.
• Remove from heat and add sour cream and then fold in spinach and artichoke hearts.
• Transfer to a baking dish and sprinkle cheddar on top.
• Bake until cheese has melted or if your baking dish is broiler proof broil until cheese had melted and is slightly browned on top.

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 375 degrees.
• Grease a 7x11 baking dish in a medium bowl mix cream cheese and mayo until smooth add chopped artichokes, chopped spinach and parmesan.
• Add lemon juice and minced garlic mix together well. For a smoother texture, pulse in a food processor until the desired texture is achieved. This will also help mix things more completely and give a better fusion of flavors.
• Bake covered with aluminum foil for 20 minutes.
• During the last 5 minutes of baking remove the foil. The top should be golden brown around the edges when it is done.
• Serve while hot with tortilla chips, fresh veggies, or Italian bread.

Steps:

• Soften the cream cheese to room temperature. Preheat over to 350 degrees. Thaw and drain the frozen spinach. Squeeze out the excess water from the spinach. Drain the artichoke hearts and pulse them lightly in a food processor, or chop them by hand. Mix spinach and artichokes with mayonnaise, sour cream, cream cheese, parmesan cheese, granulated garlic, and tabasco sauce. Mix in kosher salt and fresh cracked black pepper.
• Mixture will be thick. Spread into 9x13 glass baking dish, and bake for 45 minutes, or until top starts to brown. Remove from oven. Allow dip to cool slightly before eating.
• Enjoy!
