Sunday, December 2, 2007 - SPINACH AND ARTICHOKE DIP

She Who Must Be Obeyed and I went to a friend's house last night for a small get-together. I was bringing sushi, smoked salmon and a spinach and artichoke dip. This is dip is so stinkin' easy and so good, it's hardly fair. I'm not sure where I got this recipe and I believe I messed around with it a bit, so I can't give props to whoever deserves it.

Spinach and Artichoke Dip

2 cups of Light Cream

8 oz Monterey Jack

8 oz Cream Cheese

6 oz Parmesan

12 oz Baby Spinach, chopped

2 cans (14oz) of Artichoke Hearts, chopped

1 ½ teaspoons of Worcestershire Sauce

1 teaspoon of Garlic powder

1 teaspoon of Onion Powder

salt & pepper

Bring the light cream up to a simmer and add the chesses in, stirring constantly until they are completely melted. Add the rest of the ingredients and stir until the spinach is wilted.

This makes a lot – a lot more than you think. It’s certainly enough for at least a dozen guests, maybe more. So, fortunately, you will have leftovers to enjoy.

Wednesday, December 5, 2007 - LOW FAT

Uh..., OK.... it's low fat. Now - go enjoy.

C'mon...no, it's not low fat - a lot of things aren't low fat. But, unless you're eating this every night for dinner (if you are, I suggest a side of sautéed artichoke hearts with Hollandaise sauce), then a beautiful, sexy woman like you has nothing to worry about once-in-a-while.
