    ½ c
  • sun-dried tomato oil from the jar
    2 tsp
  • sour cream
    1 c
  • frozen spinach

    half of a 6-ounce package

    3 oz
  • grated parmesan

    divided

    6 tbsp
  • shredded mozzarella cheese

    divided

    1 ½ c
  • italian seasoning
    ½ tsp
  • garlic powder
    ½ tsp
  • salt
    ¼ tsp
  • ground black pepper
    ⅛ tsp
  • fresh basil for garnish

    optional

Directions

  1. 1

    Spray the bottom and sides of a 10-inch cast-iron skillet with cooking spray, and set aside.

  2. 2

    To the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, add the cream cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, sun-dried tomato oil, sour cream, frozen spinach, 4 tablespoons of the parmesan cheese, 1/2 cup of the mozzarella cheese, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix on low speed until combined, about 30 seconds.

  3. 3

    Spread the mixture into the prepared cast-iron skillet. Sprinkle the remaining 2 tablespoons parmesan cheese and 1 cup mozzarella cheese evenly over the top. Bake, uncovered, until the cheese looks melty, 20 to 23 minutes. If desired, broil on high until browned in spots, about 1 minute, keeping a close eye on the dip so it doesn’t burn.

  4. 4

    Serve the dip warm, garnished with basil, if desired. Refrigerate leftover dip in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Reheat leftovers in the microwave in 20-second increments until warmed through. This dip does not freeze well. Love the recipe? Leave us stars and a comment below!
