Spinach Artichoke Dip-Quick Football Favorite Recipe
- Spinach Artichoke Dip
Solve your party food, appetizer, and finger food needs! My quick, popular version of Spinach Artichoke Dip includes creamy Brie and Parmesan. Really hard to beat, try it if you doubt me. If you’re feeling extra guilty after Thanksgiving, serve with pita chips or vegetables, like red pepper squares, cucumber rounds and carrots.
If you’re in true entertaining mode serve in easy, yet impressive bread bowl. To create cut a thin slice off the top of a round bread and scoop out the soft inside, leaving a shell. Fill with spinach dip. Wrap tightly in foil and bake until hot, about 20-25 minutes. No clean up!!
