Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease an 8x8 inch baking dish, set aside.
- In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese and sour cream with an electric mixer until smooth.
- Add in the spinach, garlic, onion, salt, pepper, Parmesan cheese and ¾ cup Mozzarella cheese. Stir to combine.
- Transfer dip mixture to prepared dish. Sprinkle it with remaining ¾ cup Mozzarella cheese.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 20 minutes or until bubbly.
- Turn the oven to broil and cook for 2-3 minutes if desired for golden brown cheese on top.
- Top with chopped parsley if desired. Served with bread, crackers and vegetables.
Notes
- Store any leftovers in the fridge in an airtight container for 3-5 days. Be sure to warm it up before eating again for best results.
- If you want to transform this into a spinach and artichoke dip, just add artichokes before baking. We recommend a 1/2 cup of chopped marinated artichoke hearts in this recipe.
- To use fresh spinach in this recipe you will need to steam or saute the spinach until wilted. Let cool, then wring out all the excess water. This is very important or you will get a runny, watery dip. After that coarsely chop the spinach.
- This dip can be assembled in advance. We recommend not making it more than 8 hours ahead of time. Assemble the dip according to the directly, cover and store in the refrigerator. Then bake as directed, it will take a few more minutes to bake because the dip is cold when you place it into the oven.
