Let me walk you through the recipe and show you how to layer all of the fabulous flavors.

How to Make Sun-Dried Tomato Spinach Artichoke Dip

As with many dips, the process for making this Sun-Dried Tomato Spinach Artichoke Dip recipe is pretty straight forward.

To start, you will need:

• frozen spinach
• cream cheese
• sour cream
• smoked Gouda
• fontina cheese
• water-packed artichoke hearts
• sun-dried tomatoes
• scallions
• garlic clove
• salt and pepper to taste

Before making the dip, rehydrate the sun-dried tomatoes. This sounds complicated, but it’s not. Just place the sun-dried tomatoes in a bowl with hot water (Water straight out of the tap is fine.) and allow them to sit for about 10 minutes. Once the tomatoes are soft, drain off the water. Then gently squeeze them to remove any excess liquid. That’s it. They are now ready to be chopped.

To prepare the dip, add all of the ingredients to a bowl and mix thoroughly with a wooden spoon.

Next, spread the mixture in a baking dish. I used a round baking dish, but any medium-sized baking dish will work fine.

Slide the dip into a preheated 350-degree oven for 35-40 minutes or until the dip is heated through and melted. (If the top of the dip is browning too quickly, lightly cover the baking dish with aluminum foil.)

You can also prepare this dip in a 1 1/2-quart slow cooker. Simply add all of the ingredients to the cooker. Then set it on low and let it cook for 2-3 hours or until the dip is melted.

I think this dip is best served with crackers, but you could offer sliced vegetables for a healthier option. I used sliced peppers and sugar snap peas.
