Earls Warm Spinach And Artichoke Dip Food

3 CHEESE WARM SPINACH AND ARTICHOKE DIP

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Meanwhile, in a frying pan over medium heat, add oil and onions, sauté until onions begin to become translucent (do not brown), then add garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute. Remove from heat and let cool.
• Put thawed spinach into paper towels or a clean dish towel and ring out the water. Continue until the spinach is dry and very little water remains.
• Add spinach, cream cheese, mozzarella, sour cream, mayonnaise, heavy cream, hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, salt, pepper, cooled onions and garlic to a food processor. Pulse until everything is well combined and mixture is green in colour. Add artichokes and pulse until desired consistency is achieved. If you like your dip chunky, then only a few pulses are needed, if you like your dip smooth then you may want to just turn the food processor on to puree the mixture.
• Add mixture to a baking dish and place into oven. Bake for 15 minutes or until dip is hot. Remove and top with crumbled feta. Place back into oven for around 5 minutes, or until the dip is bubbling and the feta is warm. Serve with toasted baguettes or tortilla chips!

THE BEST SPINACH ARTICHOKE DIP

Steps:

• Position a rack in the upper third of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Spray a 1-quart baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
• Put the cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise and garlic in a large bowl. Mix vigorously until combined and smooth. (If you prefer, you can use a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment.) Add the spinach to the cream cheese mixture, breaking it up as you add it. Add the artichokes, mozzarella and 1/2 cup of the Parmesan, mixing to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and top with the remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan.
• Bake until the dip begins to bubble, 20 to 25 minutes. Turn the oven to broil and continue to cook, keeping an eye on it so it doesn't burn, until the top is golden brown, about 5 minutes. Serve warm with crackers, chips or toasted bread.

Steps:

• Purée spinach and artichokes (drained) in blender, melt cream cheese in microwave if needed and blend in, add milk to let it blend but do not let it get too runny, should still be quite thick at this stage.
• Remove from blender and stir in feta, mozzarella, and herbs to taste.
