Spinach dip is often a fan favorite, but this baked version – with bacon! – takes it to a whole new level.
This hot dip has been a family go-to for years. The combo of warm cheese, bacon, spinach, and artichoke is hard to beat – and this couldn’t get easier. The dip can be mixed up a few days in advance and then just baked when you want it. It’s such a great go-to for entertaining.
Serve this with crackers or bread for dipping!
Baked Spinach and Artichoke Dip
(adapted from AllRecipes)
1/2 lb. bacon
10 oz. package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained
14 oz. can quartered marinated artichoke hearts, drained
5 oz. container garlic-herb flavored cheese spread
1 c. grated Parmesan cheese
8 oz. sour cream
1/2 c. mayonnaise
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
In a skillet, cook the bacon until crisp. Drain the grease and crumble into a bowl.
In a medium bowl, mix together the spinach, artichokes, cheese spread, Parmesan , sour cream, mayonnaise, and bacon.
Spread the dip into an 7×11″ baking dish. Bake in the preheated oven 20 minutes, or until bubbly and lightly browned.
You always share the best recipes. I love spinach artichoke dip and need to try this one. Also the stuffed shells you shared sound devine and I haven’t made any in awhile. I admire you for planning to try a recipe from each of your cookbooks. I hope to do that someday. I have cooked from quiet a few of the ones I have but not all. Since I have close to 2500 it might take awhile.
Wow, Joan – I can’t imagine having to go through 2500 cookbooks! That’s quite a project!
I’m glad you’re enjoying the recipes!
These looks like a fun take on the “normal” dip.
It is! I love the “normal” dip too, but this one is extra special.

I made this earlier today. It was soooo good! It was nice and creamy and I loved the addition of the bacon. It went over well with my guests!
I know I’ve already commented, but I felt the need to comment again… Today was the third time I have made this dip, and it gets such rave reviews every time!
