This Spinach Artichoke Fondue recipe is made with basic cheeses, white wine, garlic and of course spinach and artichoke. It’s the perfect cheesy dip for breads, veggies and more!
A few months ago I took a girl’s trip to Las Vegas with one of my best friends. She’d never been before so we did just about everything one can do in Las Vegas in just 4 days.
We went to the Hoover Dam, went shopping, dancing, did an aerial arts class, saw some shows, way more gambling than I care to admit, and of course – we ate. Oh you better believe we ate. We ate so hard. On our second night there we made reservations at The Melting Pot. After getting lost several times we finally found our way to the restaurant and proceeded to stuff ourselves silly with all sorts of fondue. We started off with their Spinach and Artichoke Fondue and it was amazing.
So amazing that I needed to come home and make it again. For you.
Spinach Artichoke Fondue Recipe
After several batches, I think I finally cracked the code on this delicious cheesy dip. And what better way to celebrate National Fondue Day than with this simple recipe?!
Here’s what the fondue looked like that night in Las Vegas…
Here’s the one I made…
What Cheese To Use For Fondue?
I used simple and easy to find cheeses that every grocery store will carry – Gruyere, Mozzarella, and Parmesan.
Of course the dip is filled with spinach and artichokes and a little garlic too.
Can I Use Chicken Broth Instead of White Wine?
I tried really hard to make this with chicken broth, but it just wouldn’t give me that stringy cheese goodness that is achieved when using white wine (I used cooking wine).
So if you’re considering using chicken broth instead, just realize it’s not going to be the same.
What To Use For Dipping Fondue?
What you use to dip into the cheese is up to you, but I would recommend things like…
- Bread cubes
- Broccoli
- Carrots
- Sliced Apples
- Cooked Chicken
- Cooked Steak
If you don’t have a fondue pot, not all hope is lost. I used a tea light under a ceramic soup bowl to heat this fondue. It makes for an ultra-romantic setting for two.
By the end of our dinner at The Melting Pot I told my friend that I was glad I wore a dress, because if I were wearing pants I would have needed to unbutton them. Always thinking ahead…
Rest assured, this Spinach and Artichoke Fondue is a super quick recipe that is perfect for an appetizer, or a full meal if you want!
Don’t save this for a special occasion; it deserves to be made on any day of the week.
