Hot Spinach Dip Recipe Serve it on French Baquettes
Offer it warm in a bowl, or spread on bread and slice
When we first built this, it was for an upscale wine and cheese party. “...nice, but too much trouble to make...” we thought to ourselves. And then we tasted it... Turned out, the other cheeses we served that day were ignored, because everyone wanted this dip. Taste it, and you’ll know why. We prefer serving it on bread, and then slicing it - but you decide - either way is good. Really good!

Hot Spinach Dip Recipe Recipe Shopping List for 12 People: TIP: This is a perfect recipe for a very large crowd. Easy to serve for lots of hungry hands. 
___2 - scallions (green onions) chopped ___3 - garlic cloves, chopped ___1 cup sour cream ___3/4 cup mayo ___1 cup shredded mozzarella ___3/4 cup grated parmesan ___1 - 14 ounce can of artichoke hearts ___squeeze of lemon ___1 - 10 ounce frozen chopped spinach ___2-3 French Baguettes
Procedure: The Day of the Party: Don’t use all the cheese when combining these ingredients. We want to save some for the topping. Blend it nicely together. 









Cut the baguettes lengthwise. 
Lay them out on a foiled pan, and carefully spread the dip evenly on the cut sides.

Sprinkle the remaining cheese on the tops.

Now you have the option to cover with film and refrigerate. We’ve held them overnight, no problem.
TIP: Sprinkle a few drops of water on the foil around the bread for an overnight stay. Cover tightly with film.

Or - use immediately. Slide them under a hot broiler for just a couple minutes.

Remove, slice and serve.

Don’t be afraid to put the dip in a bowl with bread nearby. The nice thing about this method is the easy eating, buffet friendly appetizer.
If you don't have a broiler, you can "flash" them in a super hot, 550°f oven for a minute or two. Check them frequently if you do it this way. 
Leftovers: Wrap each baguette in film and refrigerate. We wouldn’t freeze them.
