Description

Ingredients

• 1 loaf of unsliced, French bread (see notes)
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 3 garlic cloves, minced, divided
• 1 -14 ounce can of artichoke hearts (NOT marinated)
• 1 cup fresh spinach
• 1 cup real mayonnaise (NOT Miracle Whip)
• ½ cup grated parmesan cheese, packed
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Directions

• Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
• Cut the top off the loaf of French bread and hollow out the inside, being careful not to cut all the way through.
• Heat the butter in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. When it has melted add 2 minced cloves of the garlic. Brush the sides and inside of the bread with the garlic butter.
• Chop the artichoke hearts and spinach in a food processor until chunky.
• Transfer to a bowl and mix in the mayonnaise, parmesan cheese, lemon juice, and the remaining clove of minced garlic. Spoon the spinach artichoke dip into the hollowed out loaf of French bread.
• Bake uncovered in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until heated through bubbling on the edges. I like to mix the dip around a little when I pull it out of the oven as the top can go a funny colour when it bakes.
