Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a skillet, heat olive oil and sauté chopped spinach for 2–3 minutes until wilted; drain excess moisture.
3. In a bowl, combine cream cheese, sour cream, mozzarella, Parmesan, minced garlic, sautéed spinach, salt, and pepper until smooth.
4. Cut and remove the top of the sourdough loaf; scoop out the interior, leaving a 1-inch crust.

6. Place the filled loaf and reserved bread pieces on the baking sheet and bake for 25–30 minutes until the dip is bubbly and golden.

8. Garnish with chopped parsley or extra Parmesan if desired.
