Make-Ahead Spinach Artichoke Dip Recipe

This artichoke spinach dip recipe is so quick and easy. But to make it even easier, you can make it ahead of time and then re-heat. Or you can bake it the day that you want to serve it. Our test kitchen has made this hot cheesy dip it by mixing it in large batches. Then we placed them in baking dishes and chilled them in the fridge. When the party day arrives, take out the dip and allow it to come to room temperature. Bake it at 350 degrees for about 20 minutes or until all the cheese is completely melted and hot. That’s the oven version.

More Tips for Prepping this recipe

But to make it even more easy and equally delicious, we’ve tested it by making it ahead of time in a pan. Then allowed the dip to cool, then refrigerated it. On the day we wanted to serve it, we just let it come to room temperature. Once it slightly softened, we then re-heated it on the stove top. It tastes just as good as the oven version. It’s a winner recipe because every time we’ve made and served it, people are blown away at how delicious and super easy it was to make it.

It’s the perfect holiday cheese dip appetizer and amazing game day appetizer recipe. For any gathering, there has to be an awesome spinach artichoke dip at the table and you’ll want to be the one who brings the best one ever!
