Perfect Spinach and Artichoke Dip: Tips for Perfecting Your Homemade Recipe

[Molly Jo]

I am making the spinach and artichoke dip tomorrow night and I could only find regular frozen spinach and the recipe calls for creamed spinach. Will regular spinach work? This is my first time making it. Also I am doubling the recipe, can I bake it in the square baker? Thanks

I had a show once where I made the crab and artichoke dip. I accidentally purchased the ingredients for the spinach artichoke. I found the creamed spinach in the frozen section in the little boxes of Green Giant. I know that really doesn't answer your question, but I thought I would tell you that just incase you didn't look in that section. It's not with the plain frozen veggies, but the ones with sauce (carrots and butter, cauliflower and cheese etc....)

You must...use creamed spinach! It is totally different than frozen spinach! The advice above is wonderful...because when I first looked for the creamed spinach I couldn't find it either...I was looking in the wrong place!

FyiI always buy Stouffer's creamed spinach and it isn't in the vegetable section. it's in with the Stouffer's brands in the freezer section. . . hope that helps.

I don't like the creamed spinach, so I always use regular chopped spinached instead. Always works for me.

Here's the recipe I use! I calls for frozen chopped spinach NOT creamed. It came from the Classics cookbook that's retired. Sorry the recipe looks so bad but as you can tell it gets made alot!
