Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- ¼ cup yellow onion peeled and diced
- 1 red bell pepper cored and diced
- 2 Jalapeno peppers seeded and diced (see note)
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 8 ounces sour cream
- 8 ounces cream cheese
- 10 ounces frozen chopped spinach thawed and drained
- 14 ounces canned artichoke hearts chopped
- 1 ½ cups Parmesan Cheese shredded
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 450 degrees F.
- Place a medium saucepan over medium heat and pour in the olive oil. Once hot, add the onion, bell pepper, garlic, and jalapeno and cook just until softened.
- Add the cream cheese and sour cream to the pot and continue to stir until melted and smooth. Stir in the spinach, artichokes, and 1 cup of Parmesan cheese. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Coat the inside of a 2-quart casserole dish with non-stick cooking spray. Transfer the dip mixture to the dish and spread it into an even layer. Top with the remaining 1/2 cup of Parmesan cheese.
- Bake for 5 minutes or until cheese is melted and bubbly. Remove from the oven and serve warm with crackers or baguette slices for dipping.

Notes
- If you want to give your dip more of a kick, leave the jalapeno seeds and membrane intact and add them to the dip.
- It's important to remove as much moisture from the spinach as possible. Place the thawed spinach into a double or triple layer of paper towels. Wrap them around the thawed spinach and squeeze until no more liquid comes out.
