Spinach and Artichoke Dip
Ingredients -
-
4 cloves of garlic
-
1 package spinach
-
1 can artichoke hearts, chopped
-
1 jar alfredo-style pasta sauce
-
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
-
1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese
-
1/2 package cream cheese softened
Directions -
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Roast the garlic till soft. In a baking dish, spread the roasted garlic, spinach, artichoke hearts, alfredo-style pasta sauce, mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese and cream cheese.
Cover and bake in a preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until cheeses are melted and bubbly. Serve warm with your choice of toasted breads. I found that baguettes sliced thin and baked for 3 minutes covered with olive oil and salt and pepper do very nicely.
