Olive Garden Artichoke Spinach Dip
1/2 cup frozen, chopped spinach, thawed
1 cup chopped artichoke hearts
8 ounces cream cheese
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
1 dash ground pepper
crackers, tortilla chips or sliced bread
Simmer the spinach and artichoke hearts in a cup of water in a small
saucepan over medium heat, until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain in
a colander when done. Heat the cream cheese in a small bowl in the
microwave set on high for 1 minute. Or, use a saucepan to heat the
cheese over medium heat just until hot. Add the spinach and
artichoke hearts to the cream cheese and stir well. Stir in the
Parmesan, pepper flakes, salt, garlic powder, and ground pepper,
combining well. Serve hot with crackers or toasted bread for
dipping. |
