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.

ARTICHOKE & SPINACH DIP RESTAURANT STYLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

• Bake in the preheated oven 30 minutes, or until cheeses are melted and bubbly. Serve warm.

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.

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.

AMAZING NO COOK SPINACH ARTICHOKE DIP

Steps:

• Blend onion and garlic in a food processor until finely chopped. Add artichoke hearts; process until chopped. Add spinach, Parmesan cheese, and vegetable soup mix; process until well incorporated. Transfer mixture to a nonmetallic bowl.
• Blend cream cheese, mayonnaise, and sour cream in the food processor until smooth; stir into artichoke mixture.

CHEESY SPINACH & ARTICHOKE DIP

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/ gas 4. Lightly oil a small baking dish. Tip the defrosted spinach into a sieve set over the sink and press down with the back of a large spoon to remove as much liquid as possible. Set aside.
• Whisk the soft cheese, soured cream and mayonnaise together in a medium bowl until well-combined. Add the garlic, most of the cheeses, all the spinach and the artichokes. Season with black pepper and fold everything together to combine.
• Spoon the mixture into the baking dish and sprinkle over the remaining cheese. Will keep, covered in the fridge, for up to a day. Bake for 25-30 mins until bubbling and golden. If you like an extra-crisp top, flash under a hot grill for the final few minutes of cooking time. Leave to stand for 5 mins, then serve with tortilla chips and crudités.
