Ingredients
- 1 large clove garlic
- 1/2 cup chopped scallions (white portion only)
- 1 (10-ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained well
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1/2 to 1 cup mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme leaves or 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 dash hot pepper sauce or more to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground white pepper
- 1 round loaf crusty bread (country white, pumpernickel, etc.)
- Paprika
Directions
In a blender or food processor, finely mince the garlic and scallions. Add the remaining ingredients, except the bread and paprika and blend until smooth. Taste and adjust the seasonings. Refrigerate for up to 2 days. Just before serving, make a bread bowl: Cut about an inch off the top of the round of bread and save it for a lid. Remove the bread from the center, hollowing out the loaf. Stir the dip well and place in the bread bowl. Sprinkle lightly with paprika. Serve the removed bread chunks along with crudites for dipping.

Suggestion -- use 1/2 c. mayo + 1/2 c. cream cheese - better consistency. Be sure to drain the spinach very very well (and I usually add more spinach. If you don't like the idea of frozen spinach....just cook fresh mini spinach (or cut a bunch into smaller pieces - steam for a short while till cooked, then let spinach cool and continue with this very easy recipe. Worcestershire is optional - I've made it with and without - no biggy in change of flavor.

I had to adjust some of the ingredients a bit. In order to mellow the flavors I added a little bit of plain lowfat yogurt, which seemed to work well. Definitely don't overdo the salt, at first. Make it and then add salt to taste.
Looking forward to bringing this to my next potluck!

I pretty much followed the recipe, except :
I used 6oz of cream cheese instead of mayo. I dislike mayo (and MWSD and wanted a slightly firmer dip.
For me this one is a keeper. Thanks for posting it!!
