Crispy Creamy Low Fat 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 375F and lightly spritz a shallow baking dish (1.5-2qt) with cooking spray (Pam).
• Using food processor, mix light cream cheese, sour cream and artichoke hearts by pulsing until even consistency.
• Add roasted bell pepper and Parmesan cheese and pulse until creamy.
• To bake dip: Place mixture into prepared baking dish; add spinach and stir until combined.
• Bake for 25 minutes, stirring half way through.
• Dip is done when browned and bubbly around the edges.
• To keep warm, lower temperature in oven to 250F and stir every 10 minutes until dip is served.
• For microwave directions: Place mixture into microwave safe dish (1.5-2qt), add spinach and stir until combined.
• Cover with plastic wrap, leaving room for steam to escape.
• Microwave on HIGH for 7 minutes or until dip is hot and boiling on the sides - microwaves vary, check often.
• Mix well before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Drizzle the olive oil on the bottom of a 2-quart baking dish. Scatter the artichokes over the oil, set the cream cheese in the center and top with the spinach. Sprinkle with the Havarti and mozzarella and top with the heavy cream, mayonnaise and garlic. Sprinkle with the Parmesan. Bake until browned and bubbling, 33 to 36 minutes.
• Preheat the broiler. Use a pair of kitchen scissors to cut the artichokes and spinach into small pieces. Stir the dip with the scissors until creamy and smooth. Sprinkle with the panko and broil until crispy, about 1 minute. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375. Combine all ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Make sure spinach is squeezed dry. Add more or less lemon juice, according to taste. Spoon mixture into 2in deep baking dish. Top with 1/2c mozzarella and about 1/4c parmesan cheese. This makes a nice crisp cheese layer, so add as little or as much as you like. Stick in oven for about 25-30 minutes, until top is golden brown. Serve with tortilla chips.

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.
