This make ahead and versatile dip makes a great party appetizer. Make the cheese mixture up to 2 days ahead, cover, and chill, then bake uncovered. To vary the results, replace the spinach with chopped artichoke hearts. Chazen serves a dry Chardonnay or fruity Riesling with either version. Ingredients:
1 package (10 oz.) frozen chopped spinach, thawed |
1 cup reduced-fat or regular mayonnaise |
1 package (3 oz.) cream cheese |
1 onion (6 oz.), peeled and minced |
1 clove garlic, pressed or minced |
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese |
1/8 teaspoon pepper |
1/2 teaspoon paprika |
2 baguettes (8 oz. each), thinly sliced |
Directions:
1. Squeeze spinach to remove liquid. With a mixer, beat spinach, mayonnaise, cream cheese, onion, garlic, 1 cup parmesan cheese, and pepper until thoroughly combined.
2. Mound mixture in a 3- to 4-cup baking dish. Sprinkle evenly with 2 tablespoons parmesan cheese and the paprika.
3. Bake in a 350° oven until hot in center and lightly browned on top, 25 to 30 minutes.
4. Serve hot to spread on baguette slices.
