Court-side Playbook: Instant Pot Spinach Artichoke Dip

When we go out for a casual supper, this dip is one of our favorite appetizers. I have tried to recreate our own version of Spinach Artichoke Dip many, many times. My husband got a new instant pot, and so naturally we HAD to try this dip in our new small appliance!

You guys….the instant pot makes this recipe a BREEZE! It is perfect for at home entertaining.

My daughter attended the University of Kentucky which is a powerhouse for college basketball! I love serving this dip while watching Coach Cal pace up and down the side of the court!

The Players on the Court

• frozen spinach
• artichoke hearts
• one brick of cream cheese
• mozzarella cheese

• chopped yellow onion OR onion powder

Game Day Ready: Tips for Making Instant Pot Spinach Artichoke Dip

• This is a true “dump and go” recipe. The spinach goes into the instant pot frozen!
• Make sure you use a wooden or plastic spatula with a long handle for the manual release on the pot. The steam is HOT.
• Once it is finished, open the lid and give everything a good stir to incorporate the ingredients. Put the lid back on so the remaining heat in the pot melds everything together.
• Use fresh garlic – it makes a big difference in this recipe.
• Avoid low fat (or fat free) mayo, cream cheese & sour cream. You need the real deal (calories, fat grams & all!) for optimal results.
• I transfer the finished dip into a slow cooker for grazing during the game!

Overtime! Here are a few more game day eats from the blog:

• Sideline Sausage Balls
• Football Cocoa Rice Crispy Treats
• Pulled Pork
