Hot spinach dip with artichokes blends leaf spinach and tender artichoke hearts into a velvety cheesy mixture that you bake until golden. Cream cheese and sour cream keep the base smooth, while parmesan and mozzarella add a stretchy crust and a deep savory, umami note. You serve it warm straight from the dish, with crusty bread, nachos, and sliced vegetables. It is a perfect match for game night or a cozy movie evening.

Spinach and artichokes

1
For the spinach artichoke dip, heat a little olive oil in a pan and briefly saute the pressed garlic.
2
Add the leaf spinach and let it wilt down completely, stirring often.
3
Drain the wilted spinach, let it cool, and squeeze out the excess liquid.
4
Drain the artichokes and chop them finely.

Cheese base and baking

In a bowl, beat the cream cheese with the sour cream until smooth, then stir in the grated parmesan with half of the mozzarella.
6
Fold the cooled spinach and artichokes into the cream and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
7
Transfer the mixture to a baking dish, smooth the top, and sprinkle with the remaining mozzarella.
8
Bake in an oven preheated to 200 °C for about 25 minutes, until the dip is golden and the surface begins to bubble.

Meanwhile, cut the bread and vegetables into bite-sized pieces.

Sprinkle the finished dip with chives and serve it hot straight from the dish with nachos, bread, and vegetables.
