This spicy spinach artichoke dip is my family’s favorite recipe I make every Christmas Eve to eat while we decorate our tree. It is easy and so satisfying. My boys like it SPICY but you can turn that up or down to suit your taste. We also make it for the Super Bowl and pretty much every other gathering, it’s that good!
