Cajun Spinach Dip to Die For image

When in New Orleans a few years back, I bought a copy of 'Dat Little Cajun Cookbook by Chef Remy (not the chef in Ratatouille!). There are so many similar Spinach dips out there, Chef Remy's is a little different and more "made from scratch". I made some minor adjustments which are reflected here. (If cajun seasoning is unavailable, use seasoned salt with a pinch of cayenne or red pepper flakes)
