"I am always asked to make this dip for parties and family gatherings. It is always the first thing to go! Serve it with either crackers or breadsticks."

Ingredients

• 1 (10 ounce) package frozen well chopped spinach - thawed, drained and squeezed dry
• 1 (14 ounce) can artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1/2 cup mayonnaise
• 1/2 cup sour cream
• 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a 7x11 inch baking dish.

In a medium bowl, mix together the cream cheese, sour cream and mayonnaise until smooth. Mix in the artichoke hearts, spinach and Parmesan cheese.

Season with garlic and lemon juice. Spread evenly into the prepared baking dish.

Bake covered for 20 minutes. Remove the cover, and let the dish bake uncovered for 5 more minutes, or until the surface is lightly browned.
