How to make spinach artichoke bites?

Only 5 ingredients are needed, and one of them is crescent rolls. It makes it so much quicker to make when you don't have to make your own dough. Plus, crescent rolls have an excellent flaky and buttery taste that we all enjoy.

Mix the spinach, artichoke hearts, and cream cheese in the blender until smooth. Then you are able to stuff the crescent rolls before rolling them up and baking.

Fresh Spinach vs. Frozen Spinach

Most spinach artichoke recipes call for using frozen spinach, but I personally prefer sautéing fresh spinach instead. That being said, both can be used for this recipe!

• If using fresh spinach: You’ll need about 4-5 packed cups of fresh spinach to yield 5 ounces once it’s cooked. Sauté your fresh spinach in a pan until it wilts, then transfer it to a paper towel to cool. Squeeze out as much moisture as you can before weighing it. Then chop it up and add it to your dish. (I found that fresh spinach gives off less water than frozen spinach, so it doesn’t need to be drained as much.)
• If using frozen spinach: Unthaw the spinach according to the package’s directions. Then squeeze as much moisture out of it as possible before adding it to your dip.

There are pros and cons to using both types of spinach, so it’s more of a personal preference here.

Leftover Spinach Artichoke Bites

We put the leftover Spinach Artichoke Bites in a container and refrigerated them. I thought they were decent cold, but we all prefer the bites warmed up. The toaster oven was perfect on the warm setting to add a bit of heat back to the bites without toasting them further.
