How to make Greek Yogurt Spinach Dip
Roast
Preheat the oven. Cut the top of the head off the garlic, then rub it with oil and wrap it in tinfoil to form a packet. Place the garlic packet on a baking sheet and pop it in the oven, roasting until the garlic is tender.
Boil
Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add the cauliflower. Cook until it is fork tender, then drain and set it into a high powered blender.
Sautee
Add some oil and the onion to a pan, sauteeing them until they are soft and golden brown. Place the onions in the blender.
Process
Once the garlic has roasted, chop it roughly and add it to the blender, along with the milk, some of the parmesan cheese, the greek yogurt, salt, paprika and pepper. Turn on the blender and process until smooth. Add in a handful of the spinach and set the blender to the “chop setting” until it’s broken down slightly.
Bake
Chop up the remaining spinach roughly, then stir it into the dip. Pour the dip into an oven safe dish, sprinkling the top with the remaining cheese. Pop it in the oven to bake until hot, golden brown and bubbly.
Serve
Let cool slightly, then DEVOUR!
Top Tips for making Spinach and Greek Yogurt Dip
Shiny Side In: When roasting the garlic, be sure that you wrap the tinfoil with the shiny side facing in towards the garlic! This will ensure it cooks quicker and evenly.
Chop the Spinach: Blend some of the spinach into the dip in the blender, and roughly chop some of it. This will give variants in texture, making it the best it can be!
Broil at the end: If you’d like, turn on the broil for a minute or two at the end of the baking time. This will make the top REALLY golden brown!
What to serve with Greek Yogurt Spinach Dip
This tasty dip would be perfect with your favorite crackers, chips, or a thick slice of your favorite good bread! I love serving it with triscuits!
How long does Spinach Dip Last?
This delicious spinach dip made with greek yogurt will be great as leftovers! It is best eaten immediately, of course, but it will last 3-5 days in the fridge when stored properly. Reheat and enjoy whenever you would like.
How to store Spinach Dip
I recommend storing any leftover spinach dip in an airtight container in the fridge. It will last 3-5 days this way.
