  • 1 (10 ounce block) Frozen Spinach (or 2 cups loose)or 3 cups chopped fresh spinach
  • 8 ounces Cream Cheese

  • NSTRUCTIONS: 

    • Place ARTICHOKES and FROZEN SPINACH (no need to thaw) in the Instant Pot. Add ¼ cup of the reserved ARTICHOKE BRINE or other cooking liquid.
    • Place CREAM CHEESE, MAYONNAISE, SOUR CREAM, and GARLIC on top of the spinach and artichokes. Add SALT and PEPPER.
    • Secure the lid, turn pressure valve to “Sealing” and select “Manual” or “Pressure Cook” on HIGH for 3 minutes.
    • When cooker is done, allow the pot to sit undisturbed for a 10-minute natural pressure release (NPR).

      Then flip the pressure valve to the “venting” position and release any remaining steam.

    • Open the lid, stir in JACK CHEESE and PARMESAN CHEESE until smooth and creamy. It will be very creamy and fluffy. *see footnote for stretchy cheese
    • Press the “cancel” button to terminate “keep warm” mode to prevent overcooking the dip. The constant heat can make the creamy texture become lumpy.
