Easy Healthy Spinach Artichoke Dip
Who doesn’t love a creamy, warm spinach and artichoke dip?!?! This will forever be a party staple… why not make it a little healthier?
Healthy does not have to equal bland and flavorless. Creating something healthy includes healthier substitutes, quality ingredients, and utilize the natural goodness from fruits and veggies. No fruits in this dip BUT we do throw in a few vegetables creating this savory cheesy easy spinach dip.
I’m a huge fan of organic. Yes, organic has lots of health benefits by avoiding chemicals, growth stimulants, antibiotics, or pesticides. However, I must admit one of my main motivators for purchasing organic is the FLAVOR. For me, there is a clear contrast of flavor between organic and non-organic. Organic tastes like fresh produce plucked from your very own garden. Although I don’t specifically state organic items on the recipe, I strongly encourage you to purchase organic ingredients to enhance the taste. You will not regret it!
