This Vegetarian Spinach Artichoke Dip is a Great Way to Impress Your Guests. Its the Perfect Game Day Recipe for Dipping Chips or Bread.
Nothing beats a looonnng stretchy cheese when you dip into it.
Every time there is a game day weekend, I am rummaging through my pantry trying to find salsa or some kind of a dip for the hungry guests that are showing up for a game.
This time, I thought I had enough of store bought dips and I should make my own.
Something warm, filled with veggies and topped with crusted cheese was exactly what I wanted!
I put spinach, artichoke and cheese into a skillet and off it went into the oven!
What came out of the oven was a ooey, gooey, melty, yummy goodness that had the aroma of heaven!
No one can resist the combination of artichokes, spinach and cheese! It just tastes delicious and puts everyone in an instant good mood.
Its probably a good effect because who wants to be sad when their team looses, right?

I love Dorot’s herbs. Especially the garlic. We don’t go through garlic fast enough here, so the frozen garlic really works for me. It cracks me up that you said you will risk personal injury to reach the high placed Dorot. Thanks for the coupon, and your dip looks fantastic!
Healing Tomato says
Thank you, Debi. So glad to hear that you love their products. Ginger is becoming my favorite. Yes, short people have so much fun, lol.
