One of my favorite things to do is converting, or as we call it in the business, “reimagining,” famous sandwiches into party dips. We’ve done this very successfully (or at least I think so) with the Reuben, Sloppy Joe, and Philly Cheesesteak, but this time we are sort of going in the opposite direction, turning a popular, hot dip into... to read the rest of Chef John's article about this Baked Spinach & Artichoke Toasts recipe,please follow this link to become a member.)

Don’t let the catchy name fool you; this sloppy Joe-inspired
dip really shouldn’t cause that big a mess at your Super Bowl party, just as
long as your guests aren’t too sloppy themselves. You can test them by having
them pronounce, “sloppy dip.” If they say it more like, “shloppy dip,” cut them
off.
For me this checks all the boxes for a hot party dip. It’s
relatively cheap, and easy to make, but maybe more importantly, it’s great hot,
warm, or room temp. It’s also incredibly versatile, and I can think of about
two-dozen things off the top of my head that would be great in this.
Like I said in the video, you don’t have to present this as
a baked dip. You can just leave it on the stove, on low, for guests to dip
into. People are always hanging out in that area anyway. Otherwise, you can
broil it in any oven-safe casserole dish, or do it in a sauce pan like I did,
which can also be kept on low heat after browning the cheese. No matter how you
serve it, I hope you give this great, and sloppy dip a try soon. Enjoy!
