The flavor profile is a creamy, savory blend with cheesy and tangy notes, complemented by the earthy taste of spinach and the slightly sweet, nutty flavor of artichoke hearts.
The dip typically features a base of cream cheese, sour cream, or mayonnaise, providing a rich and tangy foundation. Parmesan cheese adds a salty, umami depth, while spinach contributes an earthy sweetness and artichoke hearts offer a slightly sweet and nutty counterpoint. Garlic and onions provide aromatic complexity, while the tortilla chips offer a salty, crispy textural contrast. The side of salsa provides a fresh, acidic, and sometimes spicy element that cuts through the richness of the dip.

Use Fresh Ingredients
While frozen spinach and canned artichokes are convenient, using fresh spinach (wilted and squeezed dry) and marinated artichoke hearts can significantly improve the flavor.
Add a Touch of Spice
A pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce can add a pleasant kick to balance the richness.
Broil for a Golden Crust
Before serving, broil the dip for a few minutes to create a bubbly, golden-brown crust on top.
Pair with Variety of Dippers
While tortilla chips are classic, consider serving with toasted baguette slices, pita bread, or even fresh vegetables like carrots and celery.
