Spinach artichoke dip bites are a popular appetizer that is easy to make. Green spinach and red peppers make this colorful appetizer perfect for parties!
Disclosure: I received Crisp Cooking Tools to facilitate this recipe post for Spinach Artichoke Dip Bites.
Spinach Artichoke Dip is another one of my favorite appetizers. Spinach artichoke dip is a popular appetizer for parties. Today I am sharing a recipe for Spinach artichoke dip bites that is perfect for the holidays. They are a delicious, bite-size snack with red and green accents.
For our fourth week of the holiday progressive dinner, our sponsor is Crisp and I got these fun, new cooking tools! I received an herb mincer, a straight peeler, a julienne peeler, a straight paring knife, a melon baller set, a mini cutting board and vegetable brushes (which I discovered magically didn’t make it into this picture).
This recipe calls for fresh basil, which I love, so I tried out the herb mincer. It is really fun to use. You just run it back and forth over the herbs. There are five sharp stainless steel blades mince quickly without bruising fresh herbs.
Then, I used my new knife to chop roasted red peppers and the artichoke hearts. I can already tell that this knife is going to be a favorite of mine! It has a high quality non-stick stainless steel blade and comes with a cover that sharpens and stores the knife.
In a medium-size bowl, mix together all of the ingredients until well combined.
Use a cookie dough scoop or a spoon to fill mini tortilla chip cups (such as Tostitos Scoops.)
Bake at 350 degrees for 15 – 20 minutes or until they are hot and the cheese is toasted.
Serve immediately. If you need to prepare this appetizer ahead of time, you can use your crockpot. Mix all of the ingredients together, place in a 3-quart slow cooker. Cook on low for 2 – 3 hours until heated through. Serve the Spinach Artichoke Dip with tortilla chips.

The herb mincer would be my first choice but honestly, having a knife with a built-in sharpener sounds wonderful. And the Spinach Artichoke Dip Bites look ready to jump off the plate and into my mouth!

I think I would love the herb mincer the most. Seems like it would make easy work of mincing fresh herbs.

Thanks for sharing your version of an old-family favorite. Would love to have some kitchen tools to make this dip and the bloomin onions and potatoes also listed. They also look delicious! Thanks for the chance!

I’m loving the idea of making this in either appetizer portions or in the crock pot. It sounds delicious! All those tools seem really useful and any would make great additions to my kitchen!

SO many cool things! If I had to narrow it down, I would choose either the Herb Mincer or the Avocado Tool!

Tonia,
I’m new to your blog and I didn’t know about the Progressive Party you are having. Oh my gosh! All of these appetizers look outstanding! I love that the spinach artichoke dip has holiday colors. I have to check all of them out. I haven’t decided on what to have before Thanksgiving dinner and then later in the evening we have a big crowd for dessert, I serve lots of appetizers then, too, as everyone has digested that big dinner by then! lol!
Very nice giveaway!! I like how the knife you love has the “uses” engraved on the side. So cool!
Thanks a bunch!
