Spinach Artichoke Stuffing

Spinach Artichoke Stuffing is a mashup of everyone’s favorite party dip and everyone’s favorite Thanksgiving side. It’s loaded with spinach, artichokes and parmesan cheese. It’s a must for your holiday table!

When it comes to Thanksgiving, what is your favorite bite? Is it the appetizers beforehand? Is it the mashed potatoes, stuffing, or veggies? Or is it the bird itself?

Can I say all of the above? Because I love all food.

Obviously.

When I ask most people this question they will say that turkey is ok but where the real fun is, is the sides. I can totally see where they are coming from. Especially when it comes to mashed potatoes and stuffing, I could live on the stuff. Mashed potatoes I eat year round, but for some reason I reserve stuffing for the holidays.

I’m totally going to have to change that because this Spinach Artichoke Stuffing needs to make more appearances on our dinner table.

I got the idea to make this Spinach Artichoke Stuffing after eating way too much Spinach Artichoke Dip while looking at Thanksgiving recipe ideas. Funny how that happens right? I just thought to myself, I love spinach and artichoke dip on bread so why don’t I mix it with bread.

And this Spinach Artichoke Stuffing was born.

For this recipe, I used canned artichoke hearts. Not marinated artichoke hearts. You don’t want to use the marinated ones in this recipe because it will give it a different flavor. Frozen artichoke hearts are a great substitute if you can’t find canned.

When it comes to cheese in this recipe, I didn’t want it to be overly cheesy. But I mean some cheese is good, right? So I threw in some cream cheese (because duh) and Parmesan (also duh). The result is a stuffing that is a little creamy, a little cheesy and loaded with flavor.

    I love this idea for stuffed chicken breasts. It seems like it would be stable enough not to run or ooze out. By chance have you thought of this?

    One thing you dont mention is drying out the bread cubes the day before. Thats extremely important else the whole dish dries out very quickly as the bread soaks up all the juices.
