Cheesy Spinach Artichoke Dip
Description
The dip consists of cream cheese and mayonnaise combined with grated Parmesan and seasonings including garlic and dried basil. Chopped artichoke hearts and thawed, drained spinach are gently mixed in, providing vegetable texture and flavor. The mixture is placed in a baking dish, topped with shredded mozzarella, and baked until bubbly and lightly browned.
The result is a smooth, creamy dip where the cheeses meld with the tender vegetables. The garlic and basil add aromatic notes without overpowering the delicate artichoke and spinach flavors. Baking melts the cheeses together for a cohesive, scoopable texture.
This dip works well served warm alongside crackers, sliced baguette, or fresh vegetables. It is appropriate for parties, snack occasions, or casual get-togethers.
