This Spinach Artichoke Dip has been one recipe that I keep perfecting, perfecting, perfecting… And now. It’s perfect. Okay okay I know we all have our opinion on what’s perfect. But this is pretty darn good, I’ll tell you that. Weirdly enough, I don’t love spinach and I don’t love artichokes. But put them together (with a few other delicious things) and you get something dreamy.

I love eating this dip with chips. But you can also eat with crackers or bread. Or a hodge podge of all of it! That’s like a circle of goodness just waiting to be presented at your next party.
