THE BEST SPINACH ARTICHOKE DIP

Steps:

• Position a rack in the upper third of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Spray a 1-quart baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
• Put the cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise and garlic in a large bowl. Mix vigorously until combined and smooth. (If you prefer, you can use a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment.) Add the spinach to the cream cheese mixture, breaking it up as you add it. Add the artichokes, mozzarella and 1/2 cup of the Parmesan, mixing to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and top with the remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan.
• Bake until the dip begins to bubble, 20 to 25 minutes. Turn the oven to broil and continue to cook, keeping an eye on it so it doesn't burn, until the top is golden brown, about 5 minutes. Serve warm with crackers, chips or toasted bread.

• Heat oven to 350° F. Spray 9-inch pie plate with cooking spray. Cook spinach as directed on box. Drain well; squeeze with paper towel to get out as much liquid as possible; set aside.

HOT ARTICHOKE, SPINACH AND BACON DIP

Steps:

• Remove a lid from the loaf of bread. Scoop inside of bread out, leaving about a 1/2 inch shell.
• I baked the lid and the soft insides for 5 minutes, then broke into chunks for dipping.
• Mix together all ingredients except paprika, and pile into bread shell.
• Sprinkle over paprika, and bake in a moderate oven for 30 minutes or until hot and bubbling.
• Serve with vegetables and crackers to dip (I just like to rip the bread shell apart though).
