Baked Holiday Spinach Dip Recipe

 

This creamy, dreamy spinach dip is a savory holiday favorite thanks to the addition of our secret ingredient … Yumm! Sauce®.

So festive this time of year, the ribbons of spinach remind us of evergreens, while little pops of red bell pepper resemble winter rosehips. If you’re looking for a beautiful appetizer to be your table’s centerpiece, this is it!

Easy to make and a big hit at parties, everyone will crave another bite of this warm dip’s rich, melty, cheesiness. We used Original Yumm! Sauce in this version, but the Roasted Garlic or Chipotle would add a wonderful kick of flavor too.

Pair with a variety of fresh veggies, seeded crackers, toasted pita chips, and sliced apples for an unforgettable party platter.
