Happy Biggest Loser Tuesday!! Do you watch? Love it! It’s so motivating and inspiring.
The other day I was browsing food blogs as usual and came across Balanced Foodie’s post for a healthy spinach artichoke dip. Tonight I had company for dinner and wanted to make a delicious, but healthy appetizer and that popped into my head.
Um, this was AMAZING!!
Head over to her blog for the exact recipe but, basically I used 3/4 of a container of spinach and artichoke hummus, 1 cup of fresh spinach, a heavy helping of minced garlic and an even heavier helping of fresh parmesan cheese. I’m not certain of the exact amount of calories in the dip, but it’s probably close to 500 for the whole thing, and has multiple servings. Mine would have been even lower if I didn’t use so much cheese. Most restaurant versions have over 1000 calories and loads of fat. I looked up Chili’s info and their dip has 1130 calories and 90 grams of fat! I’m not sure I could even order it out after tasting this deliciousness!
Do you like dip? What’s your favorite kind? I could make a meal out of dip! In fact, I pretty much did tonight! Although spinach artichoke dip is my favorite, I also like taco dip, veggie dip, and pizza dip. I love dip <3
