ALMOST-FAMOUS SPINACH-ARTICHOKE DIP

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Stir in the spinach and cook until bright green, about 30 seconds. Drain and rinse under cold water; squeeze out the excess moisture, then finely chop.
• Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook until the onion is soft, about 2 minutes. Add the flour and cook, stirring, until lightly toasted, about 1 minute. Whisk in the milk and cook, whisking constantly, until thickened, about 1 minute. Remove from the heat. Stir in the lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, Parmesan and sour cream.
• Return the pot to medium heat. Add the spinach, cheddar and artichokes and stir until the cheese melts and the dip is heated through. Serve warm with tortilla chips, salsa and sour cream.

SUNNY'S SPICY 5-INGREDIENT SPINACH ARTICHOKE DIP

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Place a strainer over a medium bowl and drain the liquid from the artichoke jar into the bowl. Reserve the liquid and set aside the artichokes.
• Add 3 tablespoons liquid from the artichoke jar to a large saute pan over medium heat along with a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper. Add the baby spinach in handfuls and stir until all the spinach is wilted, then cook for a few minutes, allowing the liquid to evaporate a bit. Meanwhile, chop the artichoke hearts and add them to a large bowl.
• Once the spinach is completely wilted down, add it to the chopped artichokes. Stir in the chive cream cheese, sour cream, 8 ounces pepper jack cheese and a pinch of black pepper and mix thoroughly with a rubber spatula or wooden spoon.
• Transfer the spinach mixture to an 8-inch square baking dish and smooth off the top. Top the dip with the remaining 4 ounces pepper jack cheese. Place on a sheet tray to catch any drips, and bake until the edges are bubbly and the top is golden, about 25 minutes. (If desired, broil for 2 to 3 minutes to brown the top further.) Serve with the tortilla chips.

SPINACH ARTICHOKE DIP IN A BREAD BOWL

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Cut off the top of the bread. Use your fingers to remove the crumb from the center of the bread, leaving only the crust as a wall (discard the crumb or reserve it for another use, such as making breadcrumbs).
• Melt the butter in a medium skillet over medium heat, then add the shallots, garlic and red pepper flakes. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened about 3 minutes. Add the spinach and artichokes and cook, stirring, until hot, about 3 minutes. Add the cream cheese and cook, stirring, until melted. Stir in the mozzarella and season with salt and pepper.
• Spoon the mixture into the bread bowl, mounding it slightly if necessary, and sprinkle with the Parmesan. Place the bread and the top side by side on a baking sheet and bake until the bread is hot and crusty and the top of the spinach dip is lightly browned, about 15 minutes. Transfer the bread bowl to a serving platter. Tear the top of the bread into chunks and serve alongside the dip with crudites for dipping.

DUMP SPINACH AND ARTICHOKE DIP FROM FROZEN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Drizzle the olive oil on the bottom of a 2-quart baking dish. Scatter the artichokes over the oil, set the cream cheese in the center and top with the spinach. Sprinkle with the Havarti and mozzarella and top with the heavy cream, mayonnaise and garlic. Sprinkle with the Parmesan. Bake until browned and bubbling, 33 to 36 minutes.
• Preheat the broiler. Use a pair of kitchen scissors to cut the artichokes and spinach into small pieces. Stir the dip with the scissors until creamy and smooth. Sprinkle with the panko and broil until crispy, about 1 minute. Serve hot.

SPINACH ARTICHOKE DIP

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a medium pot over medium heat. Add garlic and cook, stirring until it's softened and fragrant, about 30 seconds.
• Add spinach to pot one handful at a time, letting each handful completely wilt before adding the next. Add crushed red pepper, if using, and season with salt and pepper. Continue to cook, stirring frequently, until most of the liquid from the spinach has evaporated (no need to drain), about 3 minutes. Add artichokes and season with salt and pepper. Cook for a few minutes, just to take the raw edge off the artichokes.
• Reduce heat to low and add cream cheese and mozzarella. Using a wooden spoon or spatula, stir until all the cheese has melted, about 3 minutes. Stir in sour cream and pecorino, and season with more salt and pepper. You can certainly eat this dip straight from the pot (or transferred to a serving bowl), but running it under the broiler for a crispy top is also an excellent option. To do so, transfer dip to a small ovenproof skillet (6 to 8 inches). Place in oven and broil until the top is golden and the dip is bubbling, 5 to 8 minutes. Let sit a minute or two before serving.

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.
