Spinach and Artichoke Dip

INGREDIENTS:

1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach – thawed, drained dry
1 (14 ounce) can of artichokes, drained and chopped
3-4 garlic cloves, minced

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

DIRECTIONS:

1. Preheat oven to 375 degree F (190 degrees C).

2. Lightly grease a medium-sized baking dish (I used 3 small baking dishes instead).

3. In a large bowl, mix together the cream cheese and mayonnaise until smooth.

4. Add artichoke hearts, spinach, and Parmesan cheese to the mixture.

5. Season with garlic and fresh lemon juice.

6. Cover with aluminum foil and bake for about 20 minutes.

7. Remove aluminum foil and bake for another 5 minutes, until the surface is lightly browned.

8. Serve with lightly toasted baguette slices, tortilla chips, or toasted breadsticks.
