This is a great dip! It’s prepared on the stove top instead of in the oven. Even veggie haters love this, and I’m always asked for the recipe whenever I make it. Omit the Parmesan cheese, if desired.
Ingredients
- ¼ cup butter
- 1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, partially thawed
- 1 (14 ounce) can artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
- 2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
- 2 (16 ounce) containers sour cream
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- garlic salt to taste
Directions
Step 1
Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the spinach and artichoke hearts. Cook until tender, about 5 minutes.
Step 2
Mix cream cheese and sour cream into the spinach mixture. Stir in Parmesan cheese and garlic salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened, 10 to 15 minutes. Serve warm.

Fast and easy! Everyone at the party loved it.
-
WONDERFUL. Just like the dip at my favorite resturant.
-
I love spinach artichoke dip and this recipe is an excellent version of it. It is EXTREMELY rich, so if you want to “tame” it a bit, you might try halfing the amount of cream cheese. It is great either way!
-
Excellent dip…I have had several versions of this and this was the easiest and the best by far
-
I made this dip for a party with children and adults. It was a hit with all. I did not have any left to bring home.
-
This was truly wonderful! I did make a few changes, however. I used a 16 oz. bag of frozen spinach, only one container of sour cream, and 2 Tablespoons of minced garlic in place of the garlic salt. It tasted just like the dip a caterer made for a party I went to. Make sure you buy ‘chopped’ spinach – mine was frozen leaves and I had to put it in a blender for a few seconds to chop it up.
-
Great recipe! Addictive! Smooth and creamy. Goes with any kind of chips!
-
I got such rave reviews for this recipe! Thanks!
-
I was pleasantly surprised by this recipe. I added marinated artichoke hearts, and that really added a zip to the flavor. It went over well with my family. I will definately make this recipe again.
-
Great with fresh spinach too!!
-
i made this recipe but i also baked it for a while.. this is excellent and i got many compliments… olive garden makes a similar appetizer but this is much better!
-
Excellent! Tast, a great appetizer-but so good your guests may fill up on the dip alone.
-
Easy and excellent! Makes a large portion but it was gone quickly!
-
Wow, this was amazing. It was great with crackers, but we also used it as a sauce for boiled chicken, and that was surprisingly delicious too.
-
Very good and very easy!! Made this as an appetizer to a dinner I made for my parents and my mom couldn’t stop eating it! I halved the recipe and still have leftovers but it’s still great reheated in the microwave.
-
This was okay. I was a little disappointed in the taste. I wish it was not quite so bland. It is definitely very rich. I think I will keep searching.
-
This recipe is great. I left out the butter and the parmesan, and the dip was still wonderful. The recipe makes a lot. I halved the cream cheese and sour cream to give a more spinachy taste. This dish is a big hit.
-
This is a great dip recipe. Its incredibly easy and people just love it. I’ve made it four times in the last month- everyone keeps begging for it! I put it in the oven for a bit after cooking to brown it and thicken it up slightly. GREAT RECIPE!
-
I use half as much cream cheese and sour cream. It is demanded at 2 different Super Bowl parties
-
This is the most fantastic way to make a great tasting spinach artichoke dip! Quick, easy and you can’t go wrong if you add a little extra parmesan cheese!!! I made it for a meeting and everyone demanded to have the recipie! Great job Cindi! Try it in a hollowed out sourdough bread-round, it’s the best.
-
Tasted Great!
-
Whoa this makes a ton of dip! It was good but not the best artichoke dip I’ve had.
-
I substituted a small can of diced green chilis instead of spinach to give it some zing. Delicious!
-
I modified it somewhat and it turned out great! I’ll definitely make this a lot as spinach is the only veggie my 2 y.o. will eat.
I made it without the sour cream, with ~3 oz extra spinach and ~ half the shredded cheese. It was still a bit too rich. Next time I will cut 1/3 of the cream cheese also.
-
I made this for a party and cut the recipe in half. It was a hit!!!!!! As good as any restaurant can serve.
-
Recipe is good, but not exactly what I was looking for.
-
This is a great recipe. I absolutely hate mayonnaise so I’m excited that this doesn’t have it. However, when I made it the first time there was too much of the cream and not enough “filling”.
First, I replaced the garlic salt with fresh sauteed minced/chopped garlic (which I cooked with the spinach) and salt (which I added after the dip was done).
Second, I cut the amount of cream cheese and sour cream in half (1 package of each) and replaced half of the Parmesan with Romano (totally your call, we just like the mix) and it turned out BEAUTIFUL! AND… if you want to put it in the oven you can!
This is a great starter recipe. Everyone who has tried this has loved it. -
First time I made this it made way to much, so the second time I cut recipe in half and it turned out great! I get request for this at all the potlucks!
-
OMG…… the best ever!!!!
-
Only thing I did different was I used less sour cream and less cream cheese, but all in all a very satisfying recipe. Thanks for sharing.
-
Too blan for me. I need more flavor and it was a bit runny.
-
I’ve made this dip 5-6 times, my suggestions…crush 4 cloves of garlic and cook in the butter as it’s melting, also, I use two cans of artichoke hearts, and I cut the cream cheese and sour cream in half, and finally, for a little more flavor, I add some ground pepper, a dash of cayenne pepper to taste, and a tablespoon of worcestershire….great tasting and easy…can even put a big batch in a crock pot on low….stays warm and delicous for hours.
-
I made this appetizer for a party and everyone loved it! The next time I make it, I might decrease the garlic a little.
-
Although I could feel myself getting fatter with every bite, this was soooooooo yummy. I served it at a party and everyone loved it. A couple girls even asked for the recipe. A couple of notes: it does get cold and set up rather quickly, so try to serve it in small quantities, reserving the rest on the stove to keep warm. Also, the recipe makes a LARGE batch; if you’re not entertaining, I suggest cutting it in half for munching at home.
-
Huge success! I made this for a Thanksgiving appetizer I went ahead and used the full amount of sour cream and cream cheese, but I added more spinich and artichokes because I knew my guests would want leftovers! I also used fresh spinich (more work but worht it!) and sauteed the spinich and artichokes with fresh minced garlic along with the butter….I served it with an assortment of crackers and hard breads from Trader Joe’s….fabulous!
-
This is a fantastic dip! I get rave reviews every time I have made it. It really does make 56 servings, so be sure you have a lot of hungry guests.
-
Great. I only used one box of cream cheese, and some of a container of 16 oz sour cream, but I added monterey jack cheese, which made it more sticky and cheesy.
-
Wow! What a great recipe! I also only used one container of sour cream and cream cheese. I also made the recipe earlier in the day, cooled it off, then placed the saucepan in the refrigerator. When our guests arrived, I just put the saucepan back onto the stove and warmed it up again. Rave reviews from everyone!
-
This recipe is fantastic. It does not use any mayonaise which is great for those who want their rich and creamy without the mayo flavor. It was the rave of the party.
-
Great dip! I followed the advice of some others, adding garlic, doubling the artichokes & cutting the cream cheese in half. I also added some cayenne.
-
Very good recipe! Took it to 3 different holiday parties and never brought any home. Thanks!
-
This recipe is awesome! I used fresh spinach and garlic cloves and cooked with the butter, I also cut the sour cream and cream cheese in half. The second time I made we added some crabmeat, pretty good!
-
I made this recipe for a birthday party. The guests raved. It was nice to have a ‘hot’ dip. The dip is creamy and rich.
-
My husband loves this. I am often asked to bring this to family gatherings.
-
Wow – my husband and I both really liked this recipe! I followed some of the other reviewers’ advice and used twice as much of the artichokes and spinach. I’m glad I did, otherwise there would have been too much creamy stuff. Note that this makes a TON of dip – even half the recipe lasted us for three nights plus I gave some to our neighbors. We dipped both tortilla chips and cut up Italian bread in it. Delicious!
-
LOVE this recipe! I make it about once a week, we eat it for lunch! It is so good. I did make two changes to make it easier, I mix use minced garlic and I just mix all the ingredients together and heat it in the oven! Thank you for this wonderful recipe!
-
I love this dip. It tastes just like my favorite appetizer from the resturant. I brought it to a party and everyone loved it and asked for the recipe. Thanks!
-
Very Good!! Co-workers, husband, and 5-year old loved it. Have to make more. Thanks for sharing.
-
This is the first recipe I’ve ever rated, but I just had to becuase it’s so yummy! I’m a novice cook and learning lots of new recipes on this site (fun! I love being able to read the reviews before I try a recipe!) and this is one of the tastiest things I’ve made. Thanks! 🙂
-
This dip is fantastic. I followed some other reviewers’ suggestions and doubled the spinach. It was perfect and fortunately this recipe makes a ton of dip!
-
Excellent! It was thick and creamy (draining the spinach after thawing helps). I added fresh garlic and a tbl of worcestershire as suggested, and refrigerated it overnight before warming it in crockpot for a potluck the next day. Try it as a topping on grilled filet.
-
Pretty good and very easy. I only used half the sour cream and cream cheese and it still made a lot. I still used the amount of spinach and artichokes called for. I liked it with quite a bit of garlic and parmesean.
-
This dip was amazing! It was so easy and quick to make, and the response from my fiancee (who is a huge spinach lover) almost made me blush! I did as the other reviewers suggested and used less of the cream cheese and sour cream and more of the spinach and artichokes, and it came out to be better than the dips that we’ve tried at restaurants. Thanks for the great recipe!
-
My favorite! Everyone loves when I make this recipe!
-
The only problem with this recipe is I have to
make atleast a double batch every time!
There hasn’t been one person who hasn’t LOVED
them. A sure winner everytime. -
This is so much creamier and easier than other recipes! I only had half the sour cream it called for, so I added 1/4 cup french onion dip, and lots of garlic powder. Can’t wait to taste the leftovers.
-
There was a little to much sour cream
-
I made this dip a few weeks ago when my sister and brother in law came over. Everyone loved. Thank you for a great recipe!
-
This was a wonderful recipe. It has been a hit at several parties, I modified it using some advice from other reviews…
*saute fresh chopped garlic into butter (5-6 cloves)
* use double the spinach and artichoke hearts
* cut the creamcheese to 1.5 packages
* cut the sourcream to only 1 container
* use a mix of parmesean, asiago and romanoI also made pita chips to go along with it…just brush olive oil mixed with pepper and garilic salt onto cut up pita pieces (triangles) and bake at 350 until crisp.
Tastes better than what you get at resturaunts.
-
This is a great dish we prepared all of the food for our wedding last summer and this dish was a hit with all of the guest!!!
-
I went through a whole batch of this recipe at one small family gathering…everyone loved it! I did saute some garlic in the butter, and cut back a little on the cream cheese and sour cream as suggested. Served with garlic toast, and it was great!
-
This is a great recipe and it’s fairly easy to make. I’ve taken it to a few family pot lucks now and everyone has liked it. It really needs a lot of garlic salt to get the right flavor otherwise it tastes a little bland. I usually serve this dip with slices of french bread, it seems to bring out the flavor better than when it’s served with crackers.
-
I got raves about this dip! Very easy to make and you don’t have to heat up the house. Very good.
-
This is a great recipe! I did cut the cream cheese and sour cream in half and added minced garlic to the butter before adding the spinach and artichoke hearts. I also cooked it in a mini crockpot to keep it warm for the party we held. Definately something I’ll make again. Thanks!
-
This is A great recipe.
I have given it to lots of my friends.
You will love it.
Enjoy -
This recipe is very good! I am always asked to make it over and over again for my family and friends! They absolutely LOVE this dip! I am known as the best “artichoke spinach dip” maker thanks to this recipe! =)
-
made this as a pre-dinner appetizer. served it with tortilla chips. i added xtra parmesan cheese, and topped it with a jack/cheddar combo, and popped the whole thing in the oven to brown the top. the kids scarfed it down, and didnt want to eat anything else! a definite winner. easy and delicious.
-
My sister and mother loved the dip, I felt like something was missing. I may try this recipe once more, as well as continue looking. Not a bad recipe, just not what I was looking for.
-
Totally awesome! Would be even better if sprinkled with more cheese and baked until bubbly!!
-
This is wonderful! Thank you so much for sharing.
-
This was okay… It was a little bland, but the crowd seemed to like it.
-
I’ve now made this recipe twice. Once for a dinner party appetizer for a few close friends and a second time for a BBQ we were hosting. It makes A LOT, so either halve the recipe for a smaller group, or have lots of leftover. WHich is not necessarily a bad thing, because my husband and I have enjoyed reheating the leftovers and eating them!! Anyway, I endorse adding the Parmesan cheese and to give it a little more pizzazz, I added about a half packet of dry ranch dressing mix the second time. I got many rave reviews from the 25 friends and neighbors we had over for the BBQ we just had!
-
Makes way too much and I only used half the recommended cream cheese & sour cream required. The flavor is little bland for my taste. I added some sauted onion to give it a boost. I may make it again but with modifications.
-
This is a delicious dip! However, don’t make the full recipe if you are only have a small gathering. It makes A LOT!!
-
Very, very good! I bought a couple of round loafs of bread, scooped out the middle and served it inside the bread bowls. It was the favorite snack at the party–everyone wanted the recipe!
-
This was excellent, very simple, and easier to make than most spinach dips because it’s not baked. Everyone at our card game loved it, both in a bread bowl and with tortilla chips.
-
This was an excellent recipe! It did make a lot of dip though, but it was really good. I will be making this again in the future!
-
I personally did not like this dip. It was too creamy for my taste. I usually prefer more spinach anbd artichokes, and less creams.
I made this dip for a party and someone else brought a spinach dip. Everyone, inlcuding me, ate hers and didn’t touch mine.
But, I have to give it at least three stars because my husband, who enjoys cremy sauces, liked it. So, it all depends on your tastes I suppose.
-
Made for the Superbowl, everyone loved it. It does make a lot, but it was also the first dip we ran out of. To the reviewers who thought this was bland, did you add any garlic salt? I can’t imagine that… This stole the show!!!
-
I doubled this recipe, although it was good, the sour cream was a very strong part of the taste.
-
This recipe was a smash at my New Years’ Eve party. EVERYONE loved it–even the kids! It was the first food I ran out of.
-
This was really good- I doubled the spinach this time, but next time I would triple the spinach- and add fresh garlic instead of garlic salt. It was just really creamy- and I like some substance in my dip. Everyone really loved it though.
-
This is a great appetizer.
-
Can’t rate this honestly as I did make some changes. I sauteed 5 large cloves of garlic (minced) in the butter. I also doubled the spinach and artichokes. It was very good. I imagine it would have been very sour cream-ey without doing that. I think you at least need to double those 2 ingredients. If you don’t, at least cut the sour cream and cream cheese ingredients in half so it’s got the right balance.
-
I made this for a wedding and it was a hit!!! It’s so good! My husband is not too big on spinach dip, but he loved this.
-
The dip is really good but I suggest doubling the artichoke hearts to make the ratio to the spinach a better balance. And cheese is good sprinkled on top too!
-
I would recommend some sassier cheeses… fontinella, gouda, romano, etc. The recipe calls for too much background and not enough feature. I agree with others; too heavy on the cream cheese and sour cream. My guests ate it, though. It wasn’t a bad recipe… a great place to start.
-
Everyone raved about this dip! Thanks for the recipe.
-
This is always a crowd pleaser!
-
THIS RECEIPE IS GREAT. I WOULD CUTTING RECIPE IN HALF IF NOT FOR AN ARMY. IT MADE A LOT OF DIP!!
-
I love this recipe. I did omit half of the cream cheese and sour cream. It would have been too creamy that way. Sauteed crushed garlic with the butter, also added some mozzerella. I will be making this again and again! Thanks for the recipe.
-
I made this for church, and it was a huge hit. I also took it to a birthday party, and hardly any was left. I added extra butter and it added just an extra taste to the finished product. Also, I did some shots of hot sauce… and it was great!
-
This was great. It got rave reviews all around at a get together I served it at. A real keeper.
-
This recipes is easy to make and tastes great! I made it for a party last weekend and I received compliments on it all night.
-
My friend found this recipe on Allrecipes and made it for us twice! It is so easy and so yummy and so perfect for a crowd of people! One of my grad school professors has us take turns bringing in snacks for the class; I made this dip and cut up some celery, carrots and broccoli and everything was GONE by the end of the class. My boyfriend insisted that I leave some home for him. This recipe makes ALOT!
-
This is the best artichoke spinach dip ever!!! I made it for my friends and they all loved it! We could not get enough of it! I did not change a thing when making it. I will definitely be making this again!
-
no, no,no,no this is ….whats the point. it tastes like sour cream and cream cheese. thats it. not enough flavor. sorry, but it needs someting more. i will be doctoring it up tomorrow.
-
From my Husbands mouth … THIS DIP IS BETTER THAN THE RESTAURANT DIP!!! He loves this stuff … he has even made it once and he added extra artichokes and it was amazing … very very good recipe!!!
-
I agree, this is a GREAT dip. But, after reading other reviews I made the following changes: 1/8 cup of butter, sauteeded fresh garlic (3 cloves, minced)in the butter before adding spinich and artichokes; only used 1 (low fat) cream cheese and 1 (low fat) sour cream. Otherwise I think you need two packages of spinich. HUGE HIT at my football gathering. Served with Doritos “GOLD” chips. It gets very thick after cooling but I just reheat with a little splash of milk and it works great. My boyfriend eats it cold, right out of the ‘frig. I liked making in on the stovetop instead of baking in the oven. This is now one of my regulars.
-
Very tasty – I will be making this again. I was hoping it would taste like the artichoke dip at my fave restaurant and it absolutely did! Only as others warned, you need only HALF the sour cream and HALF the cream cheese called for. It is rich just like that and I think a good ratio of greens to cheese.
