I made this tonight for poker night and it was a hit! It was pretty easy to make and that baked mozzarella crust on top is to die for!

I'd love to try this recipe for a Christmas party at the office. It must be warm to serve. Can this recipe be made in a crock pot?

Very nice article, this is appropriate for Christmas recipe.

I love it!

I love it!

LOVE IT! Takes awhile to prep and cook but its worth every minute. Let's just say the bowl is basically licked clean....I couldn't help it :p :p

2 pounds of spinach is way to much. I used 1 and was still alot, was very tasteless needs more flavor

It did not make that much even though it was 2 pounds of spinach I would double the recipe next time.

this is the first time i've made spinach dip and it was delicious. it actually doesn't taste as heavy as i thought. i used light cream cheese and a pack of frozen spinach. i'll be making it again for guests this weekend.

It's too rich, but if you add Sour Cream and more Cheese it's nice. In fact I've made this so many times now it's my signature dish at parties.

I made this for a bbq the kids and adults both like it.

I brought this dish to a dinner with friends and was so disappointed at how bland it was. I ended up putting it back on the stove and adding a few spoonfuls of mayo,a little sour cream, garlic salt and a bunch a shredded parm. I am usually a fan of any recipe I try from this site, but this one left a lot to be desired! Next time I will add artichoke hearts and use Guryere instead of Mozzerella.

I made this for a party over the weekend, everyone loved it. It's really good. I added some chopped water chestnuts to add some crunch. I will be making this again!

I will make this dip for every party. It is simple and delicious.

I love this recipe! I do cut down on the Worcestershire a smidge and add a can of chopped artichoke hearts! Deeeelish :)

I made this a while ago, but I have to comment...I'm no Martha in the kitchen, but this turned out absolutely amazing! My family loved it so much that I only got to try a mouthful of it by the time I brought out the second course.

Did anyone try making this in a bread bowl?

Very yummy vegetarian dish! I added zucchini and baby portobellas (before the spinach) and I used sweet onion, cayenne, and a little ground mustard. We started by dipping raw veggies and bread and by the end we were fighting over the rest with our forks! I would probably use less worcestershire sauce in the future, and next time will try it with some grilled chicken or seafood. Mmmmm...

I've made this once already for New Year's and despite the fact that I spent the night pouring over other dishes, this one was my favorite. I substituted Gruyere and just served it with a loaf of sourdough. I would say that 3 cups easily serves 6-8 people in a dinner setting, but probably a few more if you used smaller pieces of bread or bread sticks and served at a potluck.

five stars ! its easy to make and tasts great. my kids loved it and they're four and two. I added more hot sause and worcestershire sause and did 8oz of cream cheesee. yummm :)

This was an excellent dip - very tasty but not heavy or fatty. I used frozen spinach, lite cream cheese, and shredded baby Swiss cheese instead of mozzarella for more flavor. We served it with those super-thin pretzel crackers.

This was delish! I made for a Christmas party. It took a long time to cut up the spinich but it was worth it. Maybe next time I'll add more mozz cheese. Yumm.

Spinach is a wonderful base for dips and fillings a touch of nutmeg and onions compliments it so well. Popeye may have made spinach popular but from a can Oh NO --- frozen is fast and easy for salads fresh of course. Souffles and spanokopitas are great

I noticed that this receipe only make 3 cups? Doesn't seem like much. i have a pot luck to attend with about 25 people? Think I should double the recipe?

lindsayjo, how many ounces of the frozen spinach did you use?

I made this last year as a appetizer for our Christmas gathering. It was delicious and very popular. I used frozen spinach which made it quicker and easier to make.

FRESH WASHED SPINACH IS EXPENSIVE AND WELL WORTH IT! I SUBSTITUTED GRUYERE, AND WASABI POWDER, OHH, OOHH, YUM. COARSE SALT WAS USED-AS FOR THE ONION, I PROBABLY OVER DID IT, WHICH WAS O KAY CONSIDERING I INCLUDED ALL THE JUICE FROM THE ONION----WHAT RAVES--VERY TASTY-A LOT OF WORK. EXCELLENT !

I made this for a family get-together. Everyone raved about this dip. I have been asked/demanded that I bring it again and every time.

This sounds delicious! I'm having a small party this weekend and I can't wait to try this.

I made this, substituted Aloutte spread for cream cheese, no hot sauce, and served over whole wheat pasta and my picky toddlers loved it! They ate more than we did!!! I feel so good that they got a healthy meal. It was a great recipe for kids.

This is a great recipe. I made it for a clothes swap party at the end of the year and everyone loved it. I'm about to make it again today.

So simple to make and just delicious! I also used chopped leaf spinach that I had thawed and it was perfect.

This is simply delicious. 2 lbs of spinach is definitely not too much since it wilts down to a fraction of the original volume. One wonders why midnight aisle would even bother to make this recipe considering that its name "Hot SPINACH Dip" gives a pretty clear indication that spinach will in fact be the primary ingredient. Duh!!

Can't stand frozen spinach, but love it fresh in salad, and now this recipe intrigues me. Will definately make it, only I will use the Fresh stuff. read all the comments, thanks for your input. I'm sorry for you midnight_aisle, perhaps you just dont like spinach, and should stay away from. we have grown to love it. but it does take time.

Alternatives:
Cheese - substitute Gruyn n n n re or Asiago
Spices - add cayenne

ick! 2 lbs of spinach is waaay too much! this dip was flavourless and boring.

This was great for Christmas. I used the Frozen spinach and it turned out good. Eveyone thought it was great..

Turned out perfect for a Christmas party. Used about 18 oz of spinach and added a couple more ounces of cream cheese. Tasted wonderful.

you can purchase fresh pre-washed spinach and it works like a charm! My problem is converting imperial to metric (that we have here in Canada - ugh for us older ones who were taught with imperial measurements and still find them in most cook books!)

The neatest way I know to thaw and drain frozen spinach is to put unwrapped frozen block on a double thickness of cheesecloth, and set in a colander. Once thawed, you fold the cheesecloth over the spinach and wring like crazy.

You can speed the whole process up by running cold water over the spinach block, over a fine mesh colander, then scooping everything into a cheesecloth.

I've never used this exact recipe, but.....It says use 2 10 oz packages frozen spinach, drain well: but the trick is not just to drain the frozen spinach, but to squeeze ALL of the water out of it. you can even squeeze it in paper towels. otherwise you'll get really runny dip. works just as well as fresh as long as you get all of the water out

please ,someone tell me if i use frozen spinach how much do i use?
would love to try recipe but fresh is to expensive and too time consuming to clean.

This is one of my favorites for comfort food. Great for dipping veggies into....kids don't even realize how many veggies they've eaten by the time they're ful. Plus, it's so quick and easy to make.

If you don't object to frozen spinach, it's much quicker to prepare. Let your frozen spinach begin to thaw out a little bit, enough for your knife to be able to cut it easily, then either chop it up or throw it in the food processor and pulse it (not too much!). This works best while there are still plenty of ice crystals present in the spinach. Once you have chopped it how you want it, let it thaw the rest of the way and proceed with the rest of the recipe.

Looking for a tasty nibble to serve to your family and friends on a holiday pre-supper time? This hot spinach dip is delicious, yet a little time consuming. Chopping the spinach certainly takes a bit of time but it's well worth it. My family was nearly licking this dip out of the bowl by the time it was gobbled up. Serve with breadsticks or some nice crusty bread. Make this! I'm telling you, it's really yummy.
