Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a small baking dish. (5 minutes)

02

Step
5 mins

In a mixing bowl, combine the softened Neufchatel cheese, light mayonnaise, Parmesan cheese, Romano cheese, minced garlic, dried basil, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined. (5 minutes)

03

Step
3 mins

Gently fold in the chopped artichoke hearts and thoroughly drained spinach until evenly distributed throughout the cheese mixture. (3 minutes)

04

Step
2 mins

Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the top. (2 minutes)

05

Step
25 mins

Bake in the preheated oven until the dip is bubbly and the mozzarella cheese is melted and lightly browned, about 25 minutes. (25 minutes)

06

Step

Let cool slightly before serving. Serve hot with toasted multi-grain bread, crackers, or crudités.

Ensure the spinach is thoroughly drained to prevent a watery dip.
For a richer flavor, use a combination of Parmesan and Asiago cheese.
Add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a subtle kick.
This dip can be prepared ahead of time and baked just before serving. Store covered in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
For an even healthier option, substitute Greek yogurt for some of the Neufchatel cheese or mayonnaise.

    This dip is so easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. I've made it several times now and it's always a success.

    I love that this recipe uses light mayo and Neufchatel. I don't feel guilty about enjoying this at all.

  • Tracey Kuhn

    A great recipe! I added a little bit of hot sauce for a kick and it was amazing!

  • Gerson Huel

    I used fresh spinach instead of frozen, and it worked great. Just make sure to chop it finely and squeeze out all the excess water.

  • Felix Morar

    I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out perfectly. The basil adds a nice touch.

  • Sibyl Oconner
