<\/span><\/h2>\nThis spinach artichoke dip can be made ahead of time<\/em><\/strong> and baked just before serving.<\/p>\n\nCream Cheese<\/strong>: Use a block of cream cheese \u2013 reduced fat can be used.<\/li>\nMayonnaise<\/strong>: Mayonnaise helps keep this dip smooth and soft. I don\u2019t recommend light mayonnaise as it changes the flavor too much.<\/li>\nSour Cream: <\/strong>Sour cream adds tang, light sour cream works fine in this recipe.<\/li>\nSpinach<\/strong>: I use thawed frozen chopped spinach. You can cook 1 pound of fresh spinach, cool it, and squeeze it dry to replace frozen spinach. Find more details here.<\/li>\nArtichokes<\/strong>: Marinated artichokes are packed in oil and have seasonings which adds extra flavor. If using water-packed canned artichokes, add a pinch of Italian seasoning or dried basil.<\/li>\nCheese: <\/strong>I use Mozzarella, Gruyere, and Parmesan cheese in this dip. Mozzarella has a mild flavor and makes this dip gooey and creamy, while Gruyere and Parmesan add flavor. Replace Gruyere with Gouda or Swiss.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/span>Variations<\/span><\/h2>\n\nAdd crumbled bacon or bacon bits<\/li>\n Stir in green onions, chives, fresh herbs like basil or parsley<\/li>\n For a little kick, add diced pickled jalapenos or red pepper flakes to taste<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/span>Quick Overview For This Recipe<\/span><\/h2>\n\nBeat the cream cheese with a hand mixer to make it fluffy and scoopable.
