Instructions
Start by setting the oven for preheating over at the temperature of 350°F.
Bring out a skillet and add butter or margarine. Melt it keeping the heating flame on medium.
When the butter is finely melted, not browned, about 2 minutes to 3 minutes, then add sesame seeds along with minced garlic. Saute them all together for 3 minutes to 4 minutes until they turn into light brown color.
Remove the garlic-sesame mixture from heat.
In a small mixing bowl, add Monterey jack cheese, parmesan cheese, artichoke, and sour cream.
Pour the garlic-sesame mixture into the cheese mixture.
Take the bread load and finely cut lengthwise. Make a 1-inch hole on each piece by scooping out.
Save the cut bread pieces and blend in the food processor.
Now, add ½ cup of the prepared bread pieces to the artichoke mixture and mix properly.
Into the bread hole, spoon the prepared mixture.
Sprinkle cheddar cheese on the top. Continue the process with other bread pieces.
Place the slices of bread on a baking sheet and finely cover them with foil paper.
Bake in the preheated oven for 22 minutes.
Carefully remove the foil and bake for an additional 8 minutes.
The spinach artichoke garlic bread is ready. Let cool slightly for 5 minutes and slice.
Tips

If you like it extra moist, then you can add 2 tbsp of mayo that will make the dish more tempting.
Don’t over bake or else it will get hardened.
You can also add just egg yolk with mayo.
