This is my go to recipe for potlocks or parties - people LOVE it. I made a double recipe for a party we went to yesterday and it was GONE in just a few minutes!

Hot Artichoke and Spinach Dip
This is my adapted version of this recipe.
1/4 cup mantequilla (or sour cream, if you don't live in Honduras)
1 cup of shredded Italian blend cheese
2 cloves of garlic, peeled and minced
salt and pepper
1 (14 oz) can of artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
1-2 cups of fresh, chopped spinach (I tend to put at least 2 cups, sometimes more!)
1/2 cup of Italian blend shredded cheese for topping
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. In a large bowl, mix cream cheese, mantequilla, cheese, garlic, salt and pepper. When thoroughly mixed, add in the artichoke hearts and spinach.
Transfer the mixture to a glass baking dish, and sprinkle with the 1/2 cup of additional cheese. Bake in the oven for 25 minutes, or until bubbly and lightly browned.
TIPS:
-This recipes doubles or triples well. I almost always make it doubled in a 9x13 dish, because we even like it heated up the next day. :)
-I'ved tried this with jalapeños in it, and also with shredded chicken. It tastes awesome with both.
Ahora, en español para mis amigas que no hablan ingles, o para uds. que quieren pasar la receta a su trabajadora. ;)
