Spinach + Artichoke Dip
This creamy dip gets a surprising bit of bite from a small amount of horseradish. And it’s loaded with tasty morsels of artichoke hearts, spinach, roasted red bell peppers, and green onions, making it a breeze to sneak some extra vegetables into your diet. Serve it with whole-grain pita chips or raw vegetables for dipping, or spread it on triangles of whole-grain toast.
