A classic spinach & artichoke dip will just never get old, am I right?! This has cream cheese in it making it is just so CREAMY good. I love that the base is cream cheese and not mayo. A little mayo and sour cream are thrown in but not too much. You will love this dip so much. It’s easy, delicious and a great appetizer for parties.

I actually served this one night when we had family in town and let everyone munch on it before dinner was done. Then we had Oriental Chicken Pasta Salad for dinner. Something else that I liked about this recipe is that you start with fresh spinach. You can use frozen like most other recipes, but I have never tried it that way. It seems like a ton of spinach but you know how it cooks down. Don’t be nervous that it’s too much, unless you don’t like spinach and then i would advise you to not make these and just make a creamy artichoke did instead 😉

So I mentioned that we had family in town! My brother & sister in law currently live in Michigan but are moving to Tucson this summer and we are so exited to have them closer. Cousin time for the win! Our kids love to play together but we don’t get to see them nearly enough.

      I think you could. I haven’t tried this but I’m sure if you just refrigerate and bake right before you need it ready, that would work. Enjoy!

      I think that would work just fine. You could prob get away with not adding it. Let me know how it works for you!
