Instructions
Put your chopped (or delicately hand-ripped) spinach leaves in a microwave safe bowl and season with salt. Heat in the microwave for 1 minute.
Note: Make sure to drain any excess water after heating.
Chop up your artichoke hearts, add them to the spinach, and stir. Heat this up for another minute.
Add the mayo and parmesan cheese, stir, and microwave at 1 minute intervals. You’ll know your dip is ready when everything is melted and oozing cheesy goodness.
Find your favorite bag of chips and fight off your fellow double dippers for a taste of this heavenly creation.
