Easy to make, and hard to forget, your guests will love my vintage spinach and artichoke dip. A super rich and creamy perennial favorite. It seems like most people have a version of it, but, just in case you don’t, here’s mine. It originally comes from my mom.
It’s rich, creamy, and bubbly hot. It’s great served with crackers or chunks of sourdough. It’s a snap to put together so it’s perfect for those times when you are short on time.
If you love dips as much as we do, I hope you try my Buffalo Chicken Dip, Rotel Dip, Knorr Spinach Dip, and Cowboy Queso next!
Let’s make this dip!
Spinach And Artichoke Dip Recipe Ingredients
- Mayonnaise: I use Best Foods mayo.
- Parmesan: Use a good quality Parm either shredded from a wedge or in a container from the deli counter. Don’t use the stuff from the green container.
- Artichoke Hearts: I use the artichoke hearts in a can, well-drained.
- Frozen Spinach: It’s very important to thaw and drain the spinach very well. I press mine in a sieve then spread it in a clean kitchen towel and wring out any remaining liquid.
- Cream Cheese: Make sure it’s at room temperature so it will combine evenly.
- Tabasco Sauce: I like a little hot sauce in this recipe. I add very little and honestly, it’s not spicy. If you want to spice it up, feel free to add more.
Storing + Freezing + Make Ahead
- How Long Can You Keep This In The Fridge? I usually only keep it in the fridge for 3-4 days.
- Can You Freeze This? Unfortunately, you cannot freeze this dip. It would do serious damage to the deliciously creamy texture.
- Make-Ahead Tips: to take this dip tailgating, prepare dip ahead and store it in a heavy foil pan. Then, when it’s time to serve, simply heat the dip up on your grill!

What Are The Best Crackers For Spinach Artichoke Dip?
I like to serve this dip with a sturdy cracker. Crostini is great, Triscuit, Pepperidge Farm Trio Variety Crackers, or Wheat Thins.
What To Serve With Hot Spinach And Artichoke Dip
Any of the crackers mentioned above are wonderful. I also like to serve fresh, cut veggies like celery, carrots, and cucumbers. Torn pieces of sourdough are great as well.
How To Make Spinach And Artichoke Dip
-
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
-
Thoroughly mix all ingredients together and spread into a small baking dish.
-
Bake for 35-40 minutes or until heated through. Place under the broiler if you would like the top browned.
How To Make it Lighter?
Use light mayo and light cream cheese (Neufchatel cheese) instead of the full-fat versions.
Is Costco spinach dip good?
Costco’s La Terra Fina Spinach Artichoke & Parmesan Dip is actually good. Listen, it’s nowhere near as good as this easy-to-put-together dip but, in a pinch, it’s worth grabbing when you’re at Costco.
