Sauté the veggies for 3 minutes.

Add 2 cloves of pressed garlic and sauté for 1 minute.

Add cream cheese, breaking it into small pieces and stirring vigorously until almost melted (less than a minute).

Remove from heat and transfer the cheese mixture to a large bowl.

Add sour cream to the bowl followed by mayonnaise and blend the ingredients together.

Add lemon zest to the mixture.

Optionally add hot sauce and season with freshly ground black pepper.

Prepare artichokes by draining and rinsing them, then blotting them dry with paper towels.

Squeeze the spinach dry using hands to remove as much liquid as possible.

Add the well-drained and finely chopped artichokes and dried chopped spinach to the bowl.

Add Mozzarella cheese and Parmesan cheese to the mixture and stir until just combined.

Scoop the mixture into a greased 1-quart baking dish and spread it out evenly.

Transfer the baking dish to a preheated oven at 350ºF.

Bake for 15 minutes or until heated through and the top is golden.
