- Hey, everybody, it's Bobby here.
0:02
And I just can't believe
0:03
that it's already Thanksgiving of 2023.
0:06
It just blows me away.
0:07
So we're making some really traditional Thanksgiving dishes,
0:11
and one of them is a hot spinach and artichoke dip.
0:16
And you know, this isn't just for Thanksgiving.
0:18
Spinach and artichoke dips have become extremely popular,
0:21
it seems lately, and they're kind of everywhere.
0:24
In fact, Theresa was just telling me,
0:29
they're now making artichokes
0:31
that are pre-chopped in the can.
0:34
Now, these aren't. We did these in the food processor here.
0:36
But they're making 'em pre-chopped in the can,
0:38
and it says dip ready right on the can of the artichokes.
0:41
You can get 'em in the store like that now.
0:44
This is just about as easy as it gets,
0:46
but your friends and your guests that come over
0:48
don't have to know that.
0:49
You don't have to tell 'em how simple it is.
0:51
But this is one of those just kind of dump-and-stir dishes.
0:55
It's so simple. Let's get started.
0:58
Now, I've got a package of spinach.
1:00
So cook this exactly according
1:01
to the directions on the package.
1:04
This is frozen spinach.
1:05
We cooked it in the microwave
1:07
on high for about five minutes.
1:08
That's exactly what the package said to do. So we did it.
1:11
So there's our frozen and chopped spinach.
1:14
I'm gonna go ahead and add that into my bowl.
1:21
And also my artichokes, mayonnaise,
1:26
sour cream, and Parmesan cheese.
1:29
It's all going in together.
1:33
And we're very simply gonna just stir it up
1:36
like the great Bob Marley once says.
1:50
Go ahead and get those two things together
1:52
before I add the creaminess to it.
1:55
Okay, so I've just added my mayonnaise and my sour cream
1:58
to my spinach and my artichoke.
2:01
And I'm just folding it together.
2:05
And also, I'm gonna add in Parmesan cheese.
2:11
Mm-hmm. - Ooey gooey.
2:13
- [Bobby] Man, I'll tell you what,
2:14
I've got a couple of food vices that I really, really like,
2:17
and I am just such a sucker for cheese.
2:24
Love it, love it, love it.
2:26
Okay, so I'm gonna fold in my Parmesan cheese
2:29
with my artichoke and my spinach
2:32
and my mayonnaise and my sour cream.
2:34
This is not a light dish.
2:41
before your heavy workday in the gym.
2:46
Eat this the night before you (laughs)
2:48
go to the gym and have a good workout.
2:51
Put a little bit of weight on.
2:54
All right, so that looks really, really nice.
2:56
And it's well combined and folded together.
3:01
Making my mouth water.
3:02
That's always the sign of a good dish,
3:04
when you're putting it together,
3:05
and your mouth is watering, (laughs) you know?
3:09
Ooh, this going to be good.
3:11
All right, so I've got a casserole dish here
3:13
that I have lightly sprayed
3:21
so things don't stick.
3:24
And in goes my spinach, artichoke,
3:26
mayonnaise, sour cream,
3:30
Parmesan cheese concoction.
3:35
I am going to put on top pepper jack cheese. Ooh.
3:42
- Give it a little kick. - Right on top, yeah.
3:44
Just a little bit of kick.
3:46
Pepper jack cheese on top.
3:48
Make sure I get it kind of even all the way across.
3:58
And that's it. It's that simple.
3:59
So now into the oven.
4:00
350 degrees for 30 minutes.
4:04
And it's gonna be beautiful, delicious,
4:06
and bagel chip ready, I promise.
4:08
So we'll see you back here in just a minute.
4:10
Our spinach and artichoke dip has come out of the oven.
4:15
and it smells so good.
4:16
But I put a little bit on a plate
4:18
in hopes that it would cool enough
4:20
for me to taste it for you.
4:21
Take one for the team.
4:24
We've got some pita chips.
4:26
It's kind of plain though, to be honest. (laughs)
4:39
But I happen to like all of these ingredients anyway.
4:43
I love spinach and I love artichokes.
4:47
Mayonnaise and sour cream?
4:49
I can always make room for them too.
4:50
So there's nothing here I don't like.
4:52
I knew that I would like this.
4:54
But let me tell you, it is super tasty.
4:57
Your friends are gonna love it.
4:58
So for your next party
5:00
or football game or whatever you got going on,
5:02
this is a great, great hors d'oeuvre,
5:07
you know, or whatever.
5:08
Any time's a good time for a hot spinach and artichoke dip.
5:11
This is a winner. So give it a shot y'all.
5:17
