Spinach Artichoke Dip Bites

Hi guys! I know I know, I am not sharing the usual peppermint or gingerbread holiday recipe today. But these spinach artichoke dip bites are not only essential for all your holiday gatherings, but they are also game-day perfect. Because let’s be honest, 2020 is almost over and the next grand affair is Game Day. 

Spinach Artichoke Dip Bites

So are you still with me? Okay, thanks! I am pretty sure you will love these because I did a thing and used Duke’s Mayonnaise in the dip and it turned out amazing. You already know my love affair with Duke’s Mayonnaise since I first tried it a few weeks ago in this pumpkin bread pudding recipe. It’s got twang and I kid you not, it elevates everything it comes in contact with. That tangy taste and the fact that it is always sugar-free, adds a lot of flavor to your recipe. In this case, you get a nice rounded flavor of the mayo with the artichoke and spinach. My husband in just a few weeks is now banishing all other mayos from our house.

So why spinach artichoke dip bites? For me, game day food is easy to make, easy to grab, and packed with flavors. Whether it is buffalo chicken dip bites or BBQ chicken nachos, I want to make sure what I am serving up is also easy for my family and guests to grab and go. While we may be doing smaller gatherings this holiday season and into Game Day, we will not give up on delicious appetizers and will keep the spirit alive. 

Spinach Artichoke Dip Bites

For these bites, we start with combining cream cheese, sour cream, and a good dose of Duke’s Real mayonnaise (I used 1/4 cup). Next is building a complex base of cheese flavors so we add in freshly grated parmesan cheese and some shredded mozzarella cheese. Add in your spinach and artichokes to this cheese-filled base and you have yourself the classic spinach artichoke dip.

Except, we don’t stop there. We take it one step further by baking this dip in a puff pastry crust or pie crust. Why have spinach artichoke dip when you can have spinach artichoke dip wrapped in a warm buttery crust?? Yup, that’s what I thought, you would prefer the bites too! It’s a no-brainer and one I suggest you add to both your holiday season appetizers and game day list.
