This dish was a bit too bland for my taste. I added some extra garlic and salt and it was much better. I also think it would be good with some crumbled bacon or diced tomatoes.

The spinach dip was delicious, but the bread bowl was a bit too hard for my liking. Next time I'll try using a softer bread or maybe even a crescent roll dough.
