Creamy Spinach Artichoke Dip

This recipe is extremely hostess-friendly. For best results, make it the day before your party or get-together.

Ingredients:
  • 10-ounce package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and well drained
  • 9-ounce can artichoke bottoms, well drained and diced
  • 8-ounce package cream cheese, softened
  • 2 cups sour cream
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped green onions
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill (or 1 teaspoon dried dill weed)
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • few drops of Tabasco or your favorite hot sauce
Preparation:
  1. Be sure that the spinach is well drained. In fact, you can put it between several sheets of paper towels and give it a squeeze to remove any excess moisture.
  2. In a large bowl, combine all ingredients and mix well until blended.
  3. Cover and refrigerate for at least 3 hours or up to 24.

Note: This dip is a true party favorite. The recipe makes a lot, but you'll need a lot once your guests get started. The serving dishes in our photograph are Fiesta dinnerware.
