We’re snowed in and living the cozy life these days, dreaming of dishes that can be eaten by the fireplace, with a big ol’ glass of wine in hand — like our Spinach & Artichoke Dip with Crudités & Sourdough. It’s hot and bubbly and packed with spinach and spices.
The best part is that this dip pulls double duty: It’s the perfect starter for your Super Bowl festivities, no matter which team you’re rooting for. Later, leftovers work well as a broken sauce for an easy weekday pasta salad.
