This creamy, homemade, cheesy spinach and artichoke dip is to die for! Seriously though. It’s so good! This dip will take you less than an hour to make, and is so versatile. You can use it with veggies, crackers, a spread, or even on pasta. I love making this up for an easy snack to have in the fridge for the week.

Why you’ll love this spinach and artichoke dip:
- Quick Prep: The prep for this is only 15-minutes. Yep, that’s it! It’s seriously so easy to whip up, then throw it in the oven to bake
- Tasty: This dip combines seasoning alongside cheeses, artichokes, and spinach. It’s really flavorful and can add a little “something something” to your snacks/meals

Ingredient Notes:
Cheese: If you’re vegan, swap out the cheese with your fav vegan substitutes. You can also try this recipe with different types of cheeses for unique flavor combinations.
Seasoning: I used onion powder, garlic powder, fresh garlic, and salt and pepper. However, you could get creative here and use little, more, or none of these, you can swap them out, or use fresh herbs for a different spin.
Spinach: Spinach is so good for you!! It can decrease stress, improve your eye health, prevent you from serious diseases, and has a ton of vitamins and minerals like vitamin E, magnesium, and iron!
Artichokes: Of course just use the canned ones at the grocery store, not fresh. You can also omit this and mix in something else like olives or sundried tomatoes instead.

Do you use fresh or frozen spinach? Looks delicious!
Either is fine but personally, I use fresh, then wilt.
