spinach and artichoke goodness

December 17, 2009

Today has flown by, mainly because I slept most of it. I am recovering from once living 15 hours ahead of eastern standard time (aka jet lag), not to mention this blasted ear infection. Well, my hosts Josh and Michelle (bro & sis-in-law) have graciously taken me in and treat me like royalty. They went for a walk and I wiped together a little snack for the three of us. It was perfect for this chilly winter day.

I present to you (one of my favs), Hot Spinach and Artichoke Dip!

It’s a super easy recipe, all you need is the following ingredients:

1 package (10 oz.) frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry

1 package (8 oz.) cream cheese, softened

3/4 cup Mayonnaise

1/2 cups shredded cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese (about 6 oz.)

1 package Knorr® Vegetable recipe mix

1 can (8 oz.) water chestnuts, drained and chopped

2 cloves garlic, finely chopped

[PREPARATION]

Preheat oven to 350°.

In medium bowl, combine all ingredients except 1/2 cup cheddar cheese.

Spoon into 2-quart casserole…

Then top with remaining 1/2 cup cheddar cheese.  A little extra cheese never hurt anyone, I am always generous.

Bake 35 minutes or until heated through.

Serve with toasted french baguette rounds, sliced garlic bread, corn or tortilla chips or vegetable dippers. I opted for sea salt pita chips.

Soooo yummy!!
