Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Spray your baking dish thoroughly with nonstick cooking spray.
2. Place the package of frozen chopped spinach into the microwave and heat on "High" for five minutes or until thawed. Remove the spinach from the package and squeeze out the excess water.
3. Place the spinach into a large bowl, then add 1/2 cup each of mayonnaise and sour cream. Stir until the mixture is thoroughly combined, then stir in 1 cup of grated Parmesan cheese.
4. Pour the spinach mixture into the baking dish and use a spoon to spread it in an even layer. Top the spinach mixture with 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese.
5. Bake the dip for 30 minutes or until the top is golden. Let it cool for about 10 minutes, then serve warm.
