The best spinach and artichoke dip appetizer!
Watch the Video:
My spinach, feta, and artichoke dip is the perfect appetizer for every game day and holiday party. It’s the exact same recipe as my spanikopita dip I posted last year, but I added artichoke hearts. Adding the artichokes changes the flavor to make the perfect spinach and artichoke dip. It’s rich and creamy and can be served with anything from veggies to pita bread. So, it’s a great low-carb option!

Stringy mozzarella
Melt in your mouth spinach

How to make Spinach, Feta, and Artichoke Dip
- Preheat the oven to 425 °F, 220 °C.
- Place the onion and olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat and cook until soft and golden -about 8 minutes.
- Add the garlic and warm through for a few seconds.
- Then, add the spinach in a few batches as each batch wilts.
- Transfer the spinach mixture to a large bowl.
- Add the cream cheese and mix together until it melts.
- Then, add the feta cheese, the artichokes, and half of the mozzarella.
- Season with black pepper, dill, and crushed red pepper flakes.
- Mix together and transfer to an 8-inch round or square baking dish.
- Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella cheese on top.
- Bake on the center rack for 25 minutes or until bubbly.
- Turn the broiler element on for 2 minutes, so the cheese turns golden brown.
- Set aside at room temperature for 15-20 minutes before serving.
Serving
It’s important for the dip to set before serving so the dip melds together. It will be super creamy with some stringiness from the mozzarella. Serving it with veggies makes it completely low-carb, but toasted pita bread, chips, breadsticks, or anything dippable will be perfect. For parties, serve it with a variety of dippables, so there are a lot of choices for everyone. Enjoy! Kali Orexi!
