Spinach Artichoke Dip in a Bread Bowl
Spinach Artichoke Dip is one of the most popular and classic appetizers, and there’s good reason. What’s not to love about a creamy, cheesy dip? And the mild flavor of the artichokes paired with vibrant fresh spinach adds a beautiful color and tasty texture. We serve it at nearly every family gathering, from football games to birthday parties to Christmas Eve. Our favorite way to serve this artichoke dip is in a sourdough bread loaf. Buy one at the store, slice off the top (save that piece!), then hollow it out, add the dip to the center, wrap it in foil and bake it right in the loaf. It makes for a beautiful presentation and of course tastes delicious! Make sure to save the bread you hollowed out for dipping. Dip anything from crackers, tortilla chips, carrot sticks, cucumber slices or mini red bell peppers!
