Creamy Spinach Dip
This creamy, high-fiber dip is great for a family or sports fan gathering or as an appetizer dish at a dinner party. Serve with raw vegetable pieces or chunks of crusty, whole grain bread.
1 1/2 cups cooked or canned cannellini beans, rinsed and drained or 12 ounces nondairy sour cream
1/4 cup filtered water
3-4 cups fresh spinach
1/2 cup fresh salsa
1 tablespoon all-purpose seasoning (such as MSG-free Mrs. Dash) or vegetable dip mix without MSG and other additives
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice, add in grated zest if you like
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
Mash beans and water together using a potato masher, food processor, or blender until smooth. Stir in the remaining ingredients and refrigerate for 1 hour before serving.
Spoon the remaining dip into a dish. Cover and keep refrigerated for up to 3 days.
To serve, scoop out into a pretty dish, bread bowl or hollowed out red or green cabbage.
