{Skinny} Spinach Artichoke Dip

I am always looking for low calorie dishes to bring to parties and to make as side dishes for parties. I stumbled upon a similar recipe for a low calorie spinach artichoke dip, but felt the dish needed some more cheese and some slight low-calorie alternatives. Today I thought I would share you my low calorie version.   

This recipe makes about 4 cups of the dip, and each 1/2 cup serving is around 75 calories. Considering how many calories the traditionally made dip has in it, this is amazing. I have made it for several parties, and it has always been well received. My husband especially loves it. 

There are some options that you can play with for this recipe. If you want to add some extra fat, you can put some chopped cream cheese, or even some low-cal cream cheese to keep it healthy. You can also add some more vegetables, like shallots or broccoli. You can also change the cheeses, or add some different cheese flavors like parmigiano reggiano or muenster. I have made many variations, but this one has turned out to be a crowd favorite. I hope you make it and enjoy it!
