Ingredients

1 tablespoon canola oil
1 medium onion, finely chopped (about 1 1/2 cups)
3 cloves garlic
1 (9-ounce) package artichoke hearts, defrosted, rinsed and dried
1 (10-ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, defrosted, excess liquid squeezed out.
1/2 cup reduced fat sour cream
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1/2 cup (4 ounces) Neufchatel cheese (reduced-fat cream cheese)
2 ounces (about 1/2 cup) shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground pepper

Directions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

Heat the oil in a saute pan over medium heat. Add onions and cook stirring occasionally, 4 to 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook an additional 3 to 4 minutes, or until onions are light golden but not browned. Remove from heat and cool.

In the bowl of a food processor combine artichoke hearts, spinach, sour cream, mayonnaise, Neufchatel, mozzarella and salt and pepper. Process until smooth. Add cooled onion-garlic mixture to the food processor and pulse a few times to combine.

Transfer mixture into an 8-inch glass square baking dish or 9-inch glass pie plate which has been lightly sprayed with cooking spray. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until heated through. Serve with pita wedges or crudites.

Creamy Dip
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I made this for a baby shower today and everybody loved it. I put everything in a blender instead of a food processor and it... came out like pesto. It was so creamy and delicious!Read more

Bland -- do not blend the ingredients...
Rated: 2 stars out of 5

My husband and I made this dip and found that when you blend the ingredients together, it ends up being very bland and the... spinach overpowers the dish. We used the same ingredients a second time and made it more rustic, chopping the artichokes and onions, and it was much better. We also used low fat ingredients and added goat cheese, which made it very tasty. Read more

Oh, yum!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I didn't see Ellie make this so I followed the recipe, but wanted to make sure it was chunky. I processed the sour cream,... mayo, cheeses and salt/pepper until smooth, but only slightly pulsed after adding the artichokes, spinach and sauteed onions. It came out great!. Served with bagel chips and carrots. Loved it!Read more

Easy and Successful
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

For what this is worth...follow the recipe and succeed at a party. FYI...we made recipe exactly prior to putting in the... oven. We went to the grocery store bakery and bought loaves of thinly sliced CIABATTA bread as well as sliced, roasted BAGELS. We put the dip on the brad material and baked. Great cocktail winner. PS...there is a small pepper (about the size of the large green olives) called Pepperdome (sp?) from Africa. Usually sold in jars. It is a spicy, soft skin pepper with a subtle sweet taste. This spinach dip and the "pop-in-your-mouth sized pepper...another winner using this recipe. Thanks Ellie.Read more
