Ingredients
  • 10 oz baby spinach
  • 1 Tbsp plain low-fat Greek yogurt
  • [q:1/2] lemon, juiced
  • [q:1/3] cup grated sharp Cheddar cheese
  • [q:1/3] cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Pinch of ground nutmeg
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Directions
  1. Blanch spinach in a large pan of salted, boiling water for 1 minute. Drain spinach. When spinach is cool enough to handle, place it in a clean dish towel and wring to remove as much water as possible.
  2. Add spinach to a food processor along with yogurt and lemon juice. Blend until almost smooth.
  3. Transfer spinach mixture to a saucepan set over medium-low heat. Add cheeses, nutmeg, and salt and pepper to taste. Heat until cheeses melt.
  4. Serve immediately with baked tortilla chips, crackers, and raw sliced veggies.
