This was an amazing recipe. One thing I changed was the sour cream. I have found that you can substitute plain low fat Greek yogurt for sour cream in many recipes with no noticeable difference. Fage is a remarkable choice but a little pricey. Trader Joes and Fresh and easy now have their own brand of the plain Greek yogurt. Make sure it is Greek yogurt or the consistency will be off. Plus there are 19g of protein in every serving! Bonus!

I'd never made Artichoke Spinach dip before, but needed something for a crock pot party. I made it using fat free mayo and low fat sour cream & since I had fresh spinach that I didn't want to spoil, I chopped and used that. The package of shredded parmesan had 1-1/2 cups in it so I just added the entire bag intead of just a 1 cup. I heated it in crock pot until spinach was cooked & took to party. Skipped the bread and used Club crackers instead. People went crazy over it, couldn't believe how many went around asking "Who brought the spinach dip?" & some were the last people I would have expected to like it! Definitely a 'do over' which I did a few weeks later (used frozen spinach that time) for a quilting weekend where were also used it cold in our lunch roll ups.

I served half of this recipe cold and the other half hot with parmesan cheese. No one could decide which one they liked better.

Awesome, Yummy and Easy! I omit the water chestnuts and tend to be generous on the artichoke hearts but other wise the ranch dip is key. I have made this several time and will continue to use this recipe when I need a warm, creamy, delicious dip!

Threw everything in my food processor and, BAM, I was done. Put a little bit of garlic powder in, just because. It is absolutly delicious. Didn't have any parmesan cheese but it is great without it. Put it all into the hawaiian bread bowl and served with ruffle potato chips also. Thanks for sharing.

This was easy and delicious! I didn't do the bread--just made the dip. I substituted plain yogurt for half the mayo and it tasted great.

This was a great recipe! I doubled it to accomodate our large group of family and friends and it was a hit! I did not toast the bread and it was still amazing. Added the cheese even though we didn't heat up the dip and it still had that great parmesean taste.
