    I made this for a holiday party and everyone raved about it. It is flavorful, easy to make (and it can be made ahead, and it does NOT taste like it's been tweaked to be more healthy. We served the dip with cut fresh vegetables, bagel chips, and pita chips.

    This is a basic, but very good dip. Brought to my brother in laws for Xmas, and they have a big crowd so I doubled the recipe. I ran into a few problems with that because of the quantity in the food processor (and ended up having to puree the artichoke hearts/spinach longer than I would have liked, was going for the rustic/chunkier dip. With that being said, the flavor was really good. A few changes/substitutions I made: regular (not low fat cream cheese, for 1/2 of the called for Mozzarella cheese I subbed shredded gruyere, I used fresh baby spinach that I steamed slightly in pan with some left over garlic, etc from the onion mix, and I sprinkled parm on top to give it a little cheesy crust. I cook/entertain a lot and have just never done a spinach artichoke dip, will definitely add to the app list. Very easy and tasty. I served with Ritz crackers (all I had-which I'm not even a fan of, but would be great w/ a sliced baguette and veggies.

    for all the vegetarian friends who don't eat meat, this went off the table super fast. I believe we substituted lots of cheese when we could not find mayonnaise, but still turned out tasty.

    The consistency of the dip was very dry, thick, and the taste was bland. Would not recommend making.

    An amazingly easy recipe! We did grated parmesan on the top so that it would brown in the oven like a crust-YUM.

    Yummy! I used lowfat greek yogurt instead of sour cream and skipped the mayo and added a little extra cheese and a few herbs and it turned out great.

    After reading some of the other reviews I decided I wanted to keep some texture so I processed all but the artichokes, which I chopped by hand and mixed in last. I used a 14-oz can of artichokes and blanched fresh baby spinach. The uncooked mixture did taste a bit bland so I threw in some grated gruyere and Parmesan. It still tasted mild but the flavor developed after cooking. My guests raved about it. It's a great alternative to the classic mayo-laden versions that I've always found too heavy.

    Love this recipe - always a crowd pleaser! Like others I mix by hand to keep it chunkier and more rustic. I also use light cream cheese instead of Neufchatel. In addition I add a pinch of nutmeg to the mixture and a sprinkle of fresh Parmesan cheese to the top before baking. Yum! A previous commenter said the mixture seemed heavy and unflavored. Depending on the quality of ingredients you can fix this by adjusting the salt and pepper, adding more (or less garlic depending on how strong it is, etc. To make it less heavy you can mix the sour cream, mayo and cheeses with a stand mixer or hand mixer to whip some air into it. Then fold gently with the veggies.

    I love spinach and artichokes. Since I've lost weight, I'm trying to find healthier recipes. Made this for a New Year's Eve party and found it to be bland, not well flavored, and a too strong taste of spinach which happens to be my favorite veggie but not as a strong dip flavor. I also thought the consitency was very heavy.
