Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Meanwhile, in a frying pan over medium heat, add oil and onions, sauté until onions begin to become translucent (do not brown), then add garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute. Remove from heat and let cool.
• Put thawed spinach into paper towels or a clean dish towel and ring out the water. Continue until the spinach is dry and very little water remains.
• Add spinach, cream cheese, mozzarella, sour cream, mayonnaise, heavy cream, hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, salt, pepper, cooled onions and garlic to a food processor. Pulse until everything is well combined and mixture is green in colour. Add artichokes and pulse until desired consistency is achieved. If you like your dip chunky, then only a few pulses are needed, if you like your dip smooth then you may want to just turn the food processor on to puree the mixture.
