👩🍳 Expert Tips
Think you're ready to give this spinach dip recipe a try? Here are some tips and tricks you might want to take note of.
- Remember to use full fat cream cheese for this recipe. It really makes a huge difference in the flavor and makes the dip rich and creamy.
- If you use low fat cream cheese, you'll have to compensate by adding some more of the other kinds of cheese. Use softened cream cheese for best results.
- Shredded mozzarella cheese is another great addition to this spinach artichoke dip.
- I used fresh spinach for this recipe, but you could also use frozen spinach if you want to. You should be able to find frozen chopped spinach at your supermarket.
- Depending on your personal preference, you can choose to use chopped spinach or keep the spinach leaves whole.
- Fresh baby spinach is another great choice if you don't want to chop the spinach.
- If you're using frozen spinach, remember to drain off all the excess liquid and remove as much moisture as you can before using it for the recipe.
- You can also experiment and try adding other seasonings and herbs of your choice. Red pepper flakes and dried basil are two good options.
💭 FAQs
Yes, you can use frozen spinach. Just be sure to thaw and drain it well to remove any excess moisture before adding it to the dip.
To add some heat, consider adding red pepper flakes, hot sauce, or a bit of cayenne pepper to the dip.
Store leftover dip in an airtight container in the fridge for 2-3 days. Reheat it in the microwave or slow cooker before serving.
Leftover dip can be used in stuffed chicken breasts, a creamy pasta bake, as a pizza topping, or stuffed inside mushrooms for a tasty twist.
🧂Serving Suggestions
- My favorite way to serve spinach artichoke dip is to team it up with some pita chips, Plantain Tortilla Chips and lightly browned baguette slices.
- You could also serve your spinach dip with pita chips, colorful veggies or place on a platter or with a cheese charcuterie board.
- If looking for several dips for a platter serve with caramelized onion dip or this east smoked salmon dip recipe.
