Better than "Restaurant Style Artichoke and Spinach Dip"

I absolutely love potlucks and one day when I was trying to think of what to make for one I came across a recipe that would change my life. This is my all-time favourite recipe. It's simple, it's quick, it's terrible for you, and it is DREAMY delicious. Spinach and Artichoke dip is typically something you don't see at potlucks, and when you do, it's almost never home made. This recipe is revolutionary... I'm serious, you will never find an easier, more delicious dip. If you have 15 minutes and a stove, you can make this recipe.

As a side note: as some of you may know, I'm taking a break from social media right now, but since I find writing and cooking so cathartic, I'll still be posting blog updates.
