What you need to make this Spinach Artichoke Dip recipe

Spinach: Many recipes call for thawed, frozen spinach. However, that is not my cup of tea. I like fresh spinach better and it's not that hard to steam, cool, and squeeze the liquid out. 12 ounces raw spinach may seem like a lot, but spinach shrinks volumes when cooked.
Artichoke Hearts: I buy these canned and just chop them up coarsely.
Sour Cream: Use full-fat sour cream. It has the best flavor and for a keto recipe, you will want the fat in the dish.
Cream Cheese: The same goes for cream cheese, use full fat. Most reduced-fat cream cheese has added starches. Something you don't want on keto.
Tips for making Hot Spinach Artichoke Dip
- Be sure to squeeze as much water from the spinach as possible. Then break the spinach up when adding it to the cheese mixture.
- Be sure to use shredded parmesan and not grated. You can buy pre-shredded in the refrigerated section of the store, or you can buy a brick and shred your own.
- Ceramic baking dishes work best for this dip. It heats evenly and is no stick.
Other ways to make this keto dip
- Add 1 cup chopped cooked or grilled chicken or shrimp to the cheese mixture in step 3.
- Spice it up with ½ teaspoon chipotle powder for a slight hit of heat.
- Omit the artichoke and Saute some and 2 cups mushrooms ¼ cup diced Red pepper, 1 small diced jalapeno pepper, and ¼ cup diced onion. Stir into the cream cheese mixture.
- Top the artichoke dip with crumbled, crispy cooked bacon after removing from the oven.
- Swap the parmesan cheese for asiago cheese. Asiago has a strong intense delicious flavor that goes well in this dip.
What to dip?
