SPINACH AND ARTICHOKE DIP RECIPE INSTRUCTIONS
Step One: Preheat Oven
- To get started making this copycat Spinach and Artichoke Dip recipe, preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Step Two: Roast Garlic
- Place the unpeeled garlic cloves in a small baking dish and bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 30 minutes, until soft.
Step Three: Cut Artichokes
- While garlic is baking, open and drain the artichokes, and then cut them into small pieces.
Step Four: Remove Garlic from Skins
- Once ready, remove the garlic from the oven and allow to cool.
- As soon as they are cool enough to touch, gently squeeze the softened garlic from the skins.
Step Five: Combine Garlic, Artichokes, and Spinach
- In the 8-inch serve ware dish, combine the roasted garlic, spinach, and artichoke hearts and mix well.

- Mix the ingredients together well.
- Top off the mixture with a little more shredded parmesan cheese.
Pro Tip: Cutting the softened cream cheese into small pieces makes it much easier to blend with other ingredients.

HOW TO THAW AND DRAIN FROZEN SPINACH
Forget to thaw the spinach and now you’re running out of time? No problem! Follow these tips below and you’ll have it ready to go in no time.
- Remove the frozen block of spinach from the box and place it in a microwave-safe bowl.
- Microwave the spinach for 1-2 minutes or until the spinach becomes soft and mushy.
- Take a colander(affiliate link) and line it with a couple of sheets of paper towel.
- Place the mushy spinach on the paper towel. Wrap the paper towel around the spinach and squeeze the water out of the spinach. Make sure you do this over the colander just in case the paper towel tears, but if you use a couple of sheets of strong paper towels, they shouldn’t.
- Squeeze several times as there is more moisture in there than you think!
- Once done, gently remove the paper towels from the spinach, then use a fork to separate out any clumps.
Now simply follow the Spinach and Artichoke Dip recipe above and you are good to go!
