SKINNY SPINACH DIP
I love the traditional Knorrs Spinach Dip but I'm no longer 20 years old and sour cream is something we limit. So I got the idea to try the recipe with some substitutions. Switch the sour cream for non-fat plain Greek yogurt and only use 2 heaping teaspoons of mayo. And we loved it. We felt we were having a real treat. My husband couldn't stop eating it.
