Spinach Dip

Until this morning I didn't know where I'd be watching the Super Bowl, but I knew I wanted to bring something wherever I went. I have been feeling a little under the weather all weekend and just wanted to make something simple. So last night I made a spinach dip to take with me. I only had one cup of sour cream, not two like the recipe called for, so I substituted the second cup with plain yogurt. I defrosted the frozen chopped spinach on a low power in the microwave. There is a lot of water in the spinach, so be sure to drain it well, or even just squeeze it out with your hands. Getting the spinach ready took the most time, but other than that this recipe is a breeze and will go well with chips, crackers or raw veggies. It can also be served in a bread bowl if you prefer that. I found the original recipe here. Enjoy!
