“Healthified” Spinach Dip with Artichokes

This has become a party favorite that I take to all my friend get-togethers. We love it and it has replaced the full fat version!

This dip is great. Not only do adults love it but so do kids! A great way to get spinach into my children. I make this for special occasions & gatherings or just because. A definite must try!

This was a fantastic recipe! No one had a clue that it was any different than the full fat version. Delicious and I ended up printing off several copies of this recipes for co-workers!

This dip is FABULOUS! I have made it 3x, for family and friends and they have all loved it and requested the recipe. The only thing I would change is to change the basil to 1/4 tsp. or 1/2 tsp., one full tsp. was too much, I use 1/4. It is soooo good. Definitely make this one!

I love this. I made it last night as a snack fantastic. It may be healthified but it is full of flavor. My boyfriend didn't tast the difference between this and restaraunt dip. Had no clue it was lower in callories and fat until I told him. LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!

I brought this dip to a pot luck and it was a huge hit. My friends could not tell that it was a healthier version. I had many requests for this recipe. I will definately be making this again.

Turned out to be a great Super Bowl Party dip. Everyone thought the flavor was as good as the "full fat" version. The only thing that I did different was I used a few cloves of roasted garlic in lieu of raw garlic. It was quite tasty.

What a wonderful dip! We've had the "full-fat" version of this dip while eating out and we all agree that this one is just as good! The only problem is, it's so good it might be difficult to stick to one portion!!

This is terrific! My roommate and I both love spinach artichoke dip... this version is much healthier than what we would typically eat at a restaurant, but tastes the exact same! I added some extra spinach than what the recipe calls for. It is really hard to ruin this since everything mixes together, so it doesn't matter if your spinach isn't chopped evenly or the top gets a little overcooked.

I made this (minus the basil) for my wedding, and it was a HUGE hit - I had hardly any left to take home for myself!! I was asked several months later to make it again for my grandma's surprise party, and again, everybody LOVED it!! Great with chips, crackers, veggies, pretzels,....

I love this recipe. I first tried it a year ago and my family ate the whole thing raving about it the whole time! It's a little time consuming, but entirely worth it. I use a little more fresh spinach than the recipe calls for and use carrot and celery sticks for dipping. I'd say it's a great way to get your veggies!

Actually it is not necessary to add the cream cheese! I omitted that ingredient years ago. Add a few fresh basil leaves and a little garlic.....use fresh spinach - add artichokes.... and you are good to go.

A package of Hidden Valley Ranch dry drssng adds "zing" to this recipe. I also add some green onions...my kids love it!

I changed my recipe to yours and no one could tell the diference.

I made this dip for my husband and I as a TV snack. For someone who's not into lowfat, he really enjoyed it. I served it with some Pannetinis.

My son and his girlfriend introduced me to this dip served as an appetizer in many chain restaurants. I was so happy to see a "healthier" option. Made this for Thanksgiving and it was a huge hit. My husband and son fought over the leftovers. I will definitely make it again.

This was such a hit on Thanksgiving, no one had room for turkey !!! Easy, much lower fat than the regular recipe. Best with baked pita chips.

I love this dip and now I can make it and not feel totally guilty. I acutally went on Weight Watchers and a serving 1/4 cup is actually only 3 points. I am deffinately going to try this one. Thanks

Even though my husband doesn't care for artichokes, he loved this, as did I. I will definitely be making this again!

This was a crowd pleaser. You won't have any left to take home!

I had never eaten Spinach & Artichoke dip before my wedding. I loved the dip but I hated all the extra calories. This healthified version not only tastes good, but I don't have to feel bad about eating it, and on top of that: it's a very easy to make recipe.
