SPINACH ARTICHOKE DIP

One of our favourite family dips is our family’s irresistibly creamy baked spinach artichoke dip recipe. Remaking it through the years and adding my own spin on it — like bacon, for example — blew all our minds. Such a simple addition but provides so much flavour. This is the best spinach artichoke dip recipe around!

SO MUCH FLAVOUR, it hurts to look at it and not have it in front of me.

As if this Spinach Artichoke Dip Stuffed Chicken isn’t enough, I had to pull out the chicken part and add in the bacon pieces to satisfy a huge craving happening in my kitchen.

WHAT GOES IN SPINACH ARTICHOKE DIP

There’s so much happening in this skillet in the form of:

  • spinach
  • bacon
  • marinated artichokes
  • bacon
  • cream cheese
  • sour cream (or mayonnaise)
  • bacon
  • mozzarella cheese
  • parmesan cheese

HOW DO YOU MAKE SPINACH ARTICHOKE DIP?

Bacon is first fried in the skillet, coating it in all the flavour, before the dip is mixed through said flavour and baked in the oven with Mozzarella and parmesan slowly melting on top, filling your kitchen with amazing aromas.

We also add in garlic to give us even more flavour.

Top with extra crispy bacon to ensure plenty of bacon with each and every mouth watering bite!

If you don’t own a skillet, you can still make this in a 9-inch, 2 quart (or 2 litre) baking dish.

I placed this skillet in the middle of our dinner table, and to say it was gone in 5 minutes is a severe understatement — no exaggeration. PLUS crispy garlic bread to serve it with, because WHO doesn’t love garlic bread? This was lunch for three days after. I mean, remaking it, because forget any possibility of leftovers. What are leftovers?

You could also serve it with THIS cheesy garlic bread!

    Hi Karina! I love all your recipes that I’ve made so far and am dying to make this dip. Just wondering, if I subbed fresh spinach for frozen about how many cups/ounces do you think I should use? Thanks in advanced!

    Can you make this dip ahead (day or 2 before) & then heat it up? I’m trying to find ways to lighten the load for Thanksgiving.
    Thanks!

      Yes, that will be great! Enjoy it! I like to warm it up in a crockpot for easy warming on the dip! Hope that helps! Enjoy! XO
