Ingredients

• 10 oz Frozen chopped spinach
• 8 oz Cream cheese
• 0.5 cup Sour cream
• 0.25 cup Mayonnaise
• 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
• 2 cloves Minced garlic
• 0.5 tsp Salt
• 0.25 tsp Black pepper
• 0.125 tsp Crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
• 2 tbsp Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Thaw the frozen spinach and squeeze out all excess water using a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.

Step 3

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, Parmesan cheese, mozzarella cheese, and minced garlic. Mix well until creamy and smooth.

Step 4

Fold in the thawed and drained spinach. Add the salt, black pepper, and optional crushed red pepper flakes, then mix until evenly incorporated.

Step 5

Transfer the mixture to an 8x8-inch baking dish or any oven-safe dish. Smooth the top so it bakes evenly.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the edges are slightly golden.

Step 7

Remove from the oven and let cool for a couple of minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.

Step 8

Serve hot with tortilla chips, crackers, toasted baguette slices, or fresh vegetable sticks.
