Can You Store Cheddar’s Copycat Spinach Dip?
Spinach dip will remain good for about 3 to 4 days in the refrigerator, but you must keep it chilled at all times. For storing larger leftovers, transfer the dip to a freezer-safe airtight container and freeze for as long as 2 months. Before serving, allow the Spinach Dip to thaw completely in the refrigerator and stir to avoid any clumping.
Tips for Making the Best Cheddar’s Copycat Spinach Dip
- Squeeze any extra liquid from the thawed or cooked Spinach using a kitchen towel. Wrap it in the towel, twist, and squeeze tightly.
- Using a shallow and wide casserole dish will result in a crispier layer of Cheese on top, and it will also be easier to enjoy the dip.
- It’s a great idea to bake the dip in individual portions for everyone. That way, you can avoid double-dipping and dip hogs. However, you will need to adjust the baking time to avoid burning or over-baking the casserole.
- A loaf of Hearty,  or Grilled Bread is the ideal base to turn this spinach dip into a light meal.
