Court-side Playbook: Instant Pot Spinach Artichoke Dip

When we go out for a casual supper, this dip is one of our favorite appetizers. I have tried to recreate our own version of spinach artichoke dip many, many times.

It is tricky to make this appetizer when friends are over because the traditional dip recipe calls for baking this beauty for at least 3o minutes in the oven!

This becomes an issue when my entrée needs substantial baking time at a different temperature. Enter, the instant pot!

You guys....the instant pot makes this recipe a BREEZE! It is perfect for at home entertaining.

My daughter graduated from the University of Kentucky. This big SEC university is a powerhouse for college basketball! I love serving this dip while watching Coach Cal pace up and down the side of the court!

Spinach Artichoke Dip Ingredients:

• Frozen spinach
• Artichoke hearts
• Cream cheese
• Mozzarella cheese
• Parmesan cheese
• Chicken broth
• Garlic
• Sour cream
• Mayonnaise
• Yellow onion OR onion powder

Tips & Tricks:

• This is a true "dump and go" recipe. The spinach goes into the instant pot frozen!
• Make sure you use a wooden or plastic spatula with a long handle for the manual release on the pot. The steam is HOT.
• Once it is finished, open the lid and give everything a good stir to incorporate the ingredients. Put the lid back on so the remaining heat in the pot melds everything together.
• Use fresh garlic - it makes a big difference in this recipe.
• Avoid low fat (or fat free) mayo, cream cheese & sour cream. You need the real deal (calories, fat grams & all!) for optimal results.
• I transfer the finished dip into a small slow cooker for grazing during the game!

The classic rich and creamy spinach artichoke dip you love, but turned super easy by making it in the Instant Pot.
