The new go-to dipping sauce? With spinach, yogurt, and artichoke in the mix, this riff on spinach-artichoke dip might just be it —Super Bowl or otherwise. —INGRAIN, Winter/Spring 2020
Fresh spinach stands in for the classic frozen variety, yogurt does the thickening instead of cream cheese, and good parm makes the flavors pop. Put the dip in the oven at a prime snack hour. This stuff needs to be devoured while hot.
