Notes
Can Spinach Dip Be Prepared Ahead Of Time
Yes, you can prepare spinach dip ahead of time. Just prepare all your ingredients and then cover and place in the refrigerator for up to one day. I don’t recommend freezing the spinach dip.
How To Store Spinach Dip
Store the spinach dip in the refrigerator covered for up to three days.
Tips
Remove all excess water from the spinach.
Watch your broil time carefully so that you don’t burn the cheese.
You can add other ingredients to this recipe like artichokes or bacon.
To make this recipe healthier use less cheese and substitute the cream cheese and sour cream for the low-fat alternative.
If you are going to use fresh spinach sauté or steam first before baking.
