ingredients

Spinach artichoke sliders

  • 1 block softened cream cheese
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 cup shredded parmesan
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup chopped spinach
  • 12 ounces chopped artichoke hearts (1 jar)
  • 2 cloves minced garlic
  • 1 tablespoon chopped oregano
  • 1 package Kings Hawaiin pretzel sliders

Spinach artichoke sliders

  • Step 1

    Preheat oven to 375. Add cream cheese, spices, salt and pepper, and parmesan to a bowl. Use a hand mixer to combine well.

  • Step 2

    Fold in spinach, artichoke hearts, oregano and garlic.

  • Step 3

    Slice Hawaiian rolls vertically, from top to bottom- but not cutting through the bottom. (to create a sort of "sub bun" style)

  • Step 4

    Scoop spinach artichoke dip into the sliders. (you will have extra! put it in a pan and bake it, or eat it cold! OR double this recipe with an extra pack of sliders)

  • Step 5

    Brush with olive oil, and bake for 10-15 minutes until golden brown and the spinach dip starts to bubble and turn golden.

  • Step 6

    Top each slider with a piece of fried feta. Garnish with additional oregano, and fresh chives if desired. I also love a drizzle of hot honey on top!
