Spinach Artichoke dip is just such a classic appetizer that everyone should have it in their cooking repertoire! It’s a classic that never goes out of style…it’s a little black dress of appetizers.
I’ve loved spinach artichoke dip ever since I first tasted it at a restaurant. I’m sure that I am not alone here. Everyone I know loves this dish and has it as a “go to” appetizer.
I’ve mentioned it many times that we love having appetizers as our meals. This is definitely one of those appetizers that we make for dinner … as dinner.
Spinach Artichoke dip is so easy to put together, it’s fast to make and always delicious!
Everyone has their own special way of preparing this dip.
I prefer to serve it hot and I always have an option of dippers. Tortilla chips is a very popular chip for this dip but I love it with fresh veggies as well. It tastes awesome with some fresh cucumber slices and if you haven’t tried it, I urge you to!
I also found that adding just a couple of teaspoons of fresh minced parsley will enhance the flavor greatly!

I love this dip. Can it be made ahead and frozen? The recipe is a bit too large for just my husband and myself.

Hey! Thank you 🙂
You know, it’s hard to freeze creamy sauces or dips because it trends to separate as it defrosts. You can try cutting the recipe in half or save leftovers in the fridge and just reheat the next day. It will keep in the fridge for a few days. I like to reheat these types of dips in the oven but use a microwave as well.
