Preparing Spinach Artichoke Dip Stuffed Garlic Bread Loaf
Making this delightful recipe is straightforward and rewarding. You’ll start by preheating the oven to get that perfect crust. Then, you’ll hollow out a sourdough loaf and prepare the creamy filling with spinach and artichokes. Think of it as building your own little edible bowl of joy! Once the filling is combined and stuffed into the bread, it’s all about the baking—allowing the bread to become crispy while the dip heats through, creating a harmonious blend of flavors.
What you’ll need
Gather these ingredients for a delicious result:
- 1 round loaf of sourdough bread
- 1 (10 oz) package of frozen spinach, thawed and drained
- 1 (14 oz) can of artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
