Our easy spinach artichoke dip is extra delicious, cheesy and prepped in minutes – making it the ultimate party dip!
The Go-to Party Dip!
Spinach artichoke dip has ALWAYS been one of our favorite appetizers.
It’s one we often get when we go out for date night and a dip we frequently whip up for parties, get-togethers, and holidays! We especially love this spinach artichoke dip recipe is VERY simple, only requires a small handful of ingredients, and can be put together in just a few minutes (we even have a crockpot version).
Serve it with Homemade Tortilla chips (or store bought – our favorite kind if Juanitas’s) or slices of French Bread.
WHY WE LOVE IT:
- Extra creamy! With two kinds of cheese, mayo, AND sour cream – this is one cheesy, creamy dip.
- 10-minute prep. Mix and bake, how simple is that?! We love this easy appetizer.
- Plenty to share! This makes a big batch, enough for everyone. It can easily be made ahead of time making planning a breeze.

Recipe FAQ
Make the dip as instructed and place it in your dish. Cover in the fridge for up to 24 hours before baking.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days, or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
What type of Mayo should I use?
I just used regular mayo. I like Best Foods, but really any would work 🙂
Any would work. I just used regular mayo. I like Best Foods. Hope that helps!
When you say “mayo” are we talking real mayo or Miracle whip?
Sorry, mayonnaise 🙂
Can you use canned spinach? Or fresh?
We’ve never tried canned spinach, but I’m sure it would work as well as fresh spinach. 😉
How many people will a single batch serve?
I couldn’t say a number, but it makes a good size bowl. It could feed a good size group, if you are serving as an appetizer.
I used one block of cream cheese, I bag of fresh Baby Spinach, and added 2T of Dijon Mustard- all else the same. Delicious!!!
Sounds wonderful! Thanks for sharing!
Can leftover dip be refrigerated and microwaved later?
Of course! 🙂 Enjoy! Let me know what you think!
Fantastic recipe! My family LOVED this! Thank You So Much!
No, thank you so much for trying it! Glad it was a hit with everyone!
Can you use canned spinach?
I made this and it is Such an amazing dip!!The key to a successful dip is to drain the spinach well. Put the pieces on a paper towel , roll it up and squeeeeeeze. This prevents a soggy, wet dip. This dip 11/10!
Yes…that’s the key!! Thanks Oscar!!
Does this dip freeze well if you make ahead?
I haven’t tried yet..anyone else have? I’m thinking it should be ok, but honestly not 100% positive. I’d love to know if you do freeze it.
I did tonight actually! It turned out fantastic! I tweaked it a little bit and didn’t use mayo. But I’m sure it would be wonderful with it! I did it on high for 2 hours and it was delicious! Fast and easy and I didn’t have to worry about keeping it warm!
Yay!! Makes me happy to hear that! Thanks so much for making it and for letting me know!
Hello! Just wondering could you put this is a crock pot and cook it?
I haven’t done it that way, but I’m sure you could!! Maybe on low. Good luck and enjoy!! Thank you for stopping by!
Did u try it in a crockpot? How did it turn out?
I was wondering the same thing! I’m going to try it today 🙂
I have not done this specific recipe in the crock pot, but it should be ok. I would keep it on low.
