Spinach Artichoke Dip

You cannot have a party without a dip. Especially during the holidays, dips and appetizers are my go-to for entertaining. I’m not reinventing the wheel here, more like making it more efficient. Spinach artichoke dip is usually a holiday staple. Rich in mayonnaise and sour cream, it’s delicious, but always used to give me a gross feeling. While the holidays are a time to indulge, I decided to lighten up the dip and give it even more flavor. No one will feel like they’re missing anything when you serve this updated version.

Served warm or cold, this is delicious. I garnished with feta cheese and served with pieces of bread, crackers, and a selection of vegetables. Any way you choose, this will be a hit!
