Happy Friday! Remember how I told you that Happy Hour (at home) is our new social gathering of choice these days? This dip appeared at one such gathering. A few Fridays ago our friends Paige and Zach were in town and rather than hit up a restaurant, my sister Julia, her husband Nate, and baby Carsten joined us for some snacks and rosé on our patio.

I was drawn to this recipe because of how easy it was. Most of the time I try to make whatever I can ahead of time, but in this case I ran out of time and instead whipped it up in less than ten minutes. After steaming and chopping the spinach, it’s simply a matter of stirring the ingredients together. The base of the dip is sour cream (I used light), but you could probably also try a mix of sour cream and Greek yogurt.

Spinach dip is pretty typical, but the inclusion of mint here makes things a little more exciting. We used pita chips, crackers, and raw vegetables for dipping…you can’t go wrong with any of them!
