Hot Spinach Dip Recipe 455

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Grease a 1 1/2-quart shallow baking dish with 1 teaspoon olive oil.
• Heat 2 teaspoons olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Cook and stir onion and garlic in hot oil until lightly browned, 4 to 7 minutes. Add spinach and simmer until spinach is hot, about 5 minutes. Drain any liquid from the mixture and transfer to a bowl.
• Pour milk into pot and return pot to medium heat. Melt cream cheese into the milk; cook and stir together about 3 minutes. Return spinach mixture to pot with 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese and Cheddar cheese; stir to combine. Season the mixture with Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and top with 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese.
• Bake in preheated oven until bubbly and golden brown on top, 20 to 25 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Mix together spinach, bell pepper, garlic, artichokes, sour cream, and parmesan cheese. Season with salt and pepper. Mixture will be thick; add cream to thin to dip consistency. Spoon into a 1-quart baking dish.
• Bake for 20 minutes, or until bubbly. Serve with crackers.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. In a Dutch oven or large pot, heat oil over medium. Add onion and garlic; cook until lightly browned, 5 to 8 minutes.
• Add spinach in two additions, letting the first batch wilt before adding the next; cook until completely wilted, 5 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a colander; drain, pressing to release all excess liquid.
• In the same pot, warm milk over high heat. Whisk in cream cheese until melted, about 3 minutes. Add spinach, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, and 1/4 cup mozzarella; stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Pour into a lightly oiled 1 1/2-quart shallow baking dish; sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup mozzarella.
• Bake until bubbly and golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Serve hot with accompaniments, as desired.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, beat the cream cheese, mayonnaise and Parmesan cheese until blended. Stir in spinach and mozzarella cheese. Spoon into an ungreased microwave-safe 9-in. pie plate., Microwave, uncovered, on high for 4-5 minutes or until bubbly, stirring twice. Serve with crackers or vegetables.

Steps:

• Allow the cream cheese to soften. To thaw out the creamed spinach; place the spinach on a small plate. Cut a slit to vent, and microwave on high for 2 minutes.
• After spinach has thawed, pour the creamed spinach into a small, microwave safe bowl. Add the rest of the ingredients, stirring well to combine. (It's perfectly fine to have small lumps of cream cheese in the dip at this time.).
• Microwave the mixture, uncovered, on high for 5 minutes. Stir about halfway through cooking, and again before serving.
• NOTES - Serve with tortilla chips. Leftovers make a quick and easy stuffed mushroom, too. If you have Swiss cheese sandwich slices, these can be used, too. Thinly slice the cheese. Just use 2 oz - usually 3-4 slices, depending on thickness of the cheese.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, combine the first eight ingredients. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 7-8 minutes or until cheese is melted, stirring occasionally. Serve warm with vegetables.
