Best Spinach Artichoke Dip Tips

All the best dips start with cream cheese. This spinach artichoke dip is proof! Here are a few of the tips and tricks for making the best spinach artichoke dip of your life:

· It's important that your cream cheese is softened before you start mixing the ingredients. Otherwise, it won't incorporate well.
· Mix everything together before you add the spinach and artichokes. You'll want to get the cream cheese mixture well-blended first so the veggies stay intact.
· Squeeze out as much moisture as you can before you add the spinach so the dip doesn't get runny.
· If you want to make spinach artichoke dip in advance, mix all the ingredients together — but don't bake it. Store it in the fridge for a day or two, then bake it right before serving.
