OVEN-BAKED SPINACH DIP IN A BREAD BOWL

DELICIOUS BAKED MEXICAN SPINACH FIESTA DIP
We love this warm, creamy, cheesy dip year round. Always the first to go at our football parties. You can adjust the level of heat by adjusting the amount of jalapeno you use. We're fine at 2 tablespoons. But, if you're daring and like it devilishly hot, you may go up to 4 tablespoons, but have some Margaritas ready!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F Grease 8 x 8-in glass baking dish.
- In a large bowl beat cream cheese until smooth. Add milk, roasted garlic, nutmeg, parsley, salt and pepper and mix until combined.
- Mix in 1 cup each of mozzarella and Parmesan cheese along with chopped spinach. Gently fold in artichoke heats.
- Pour mixture into greased baking dish, top with remaining cheese, and bake for 25 - 30 min or until cheese is bubbly and top is golden brown.
- Remove from oven and serve with sliced baguette or assorted veggie sticks.
- Enjoy!
Tips:
- Use fresh spinach. Fresh spinach has a more vibrant flavor and color than frozen spinach. If you're using frozen spinach, be sure to thaw it completely and squeeze out any excess water before using.
- Don't overcook the spinach. Overcooked spinach will become mushy and lose its flavor. Cook it just until it is wilted, about 1-2 minutes.
- Use a variety of cheeses. A combination of cheeses will give your dip a more complex flavor. Try using a combination of cream cheese, cheddar cheese, and Parmesan cheese.
- Add some spice. A little bit of spice will help to balance out the richness of the cheese. Try adding a pinch of cayenne pepper, paprika, or chili powder.
- Serve with your favorite dippers. Baked spinach dip can be served with a variety of dippers, such as crackers, chips, bread, or vegetables.
Conclusion:
Baked spinach dip is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. It's creamy, cheesy, and packed with flavor. Plus, it can be made ahead of time, so it's a great option for busy weeknights. So next time you're looking for a crowd-pleasing appetizer, give baked spinach dip a try.
