Guys... Spinach Dip

Today I am deciding to post about my awesome White Bean and Spinach Dip. Healthy? Yes (if you don't eat the entire pan). Experimental? Yes. It is very similar to what a spinach and artichoke dip would be without all the extra fat and calories. I found the recipe here:

If you know me well, you know that I am an obsessive Pinterest viewer. This recipe comes from Pinterest. I literally can't even remember who the first person was that told me about it, but I am both thankful and resentful for that person. 

Anyway. You basically mix the cheese and other things together, then add the spinach/artichoke. Being the poor 2nd year teacher that I am, I didn't feel like buying artichokes, so I just used extra spinach. Boyfriend was okay with this. 

Instead of Mozzarella, I had 1/2 the fat provolone to top it with. Still delish.

Eventually, you throw everything together and then pop it in the oven.

Make sure to watch it carefully. I have been burning things a lot lately, so I was really watching this puppy. Once it bubbles and/or turns brown on the edges, you're ready to go.

I also had some home made tortillas from another night (if you viewed my last post, these were the tortillas that I made from the failed yeasty dough meant for rolls that didn't rise), so I cut them up into pita chips. 

I popped those suckers in the oven along with the dip, and they warmed up perfectly. They also got a little bit more toasted on the edges. 

The end result was pretty pleasing. I felt food about eating white bean dip that didn't have butter and a ton of cheese in it. Not bad for a weeknight appetizer.

Boyfriend verdict: s'good. 

I will have more to come later. Next: Oreo Truffles.'
