📖 Variations

- Sun-dried tomatoes that have been chopped and drained make a great addition to this dip. Be sure to chop them small and keep them to a minimum - they'll add carbs.

💭 Tips
Expert Tip: While cooking the garlic be sure to stir it often so that it doesn't burn and turn bitter.
- For this dip, I recommend shredding your own cheese so that the anticaking agent doesn't make your dip gritty.
- Using room temperature cream cheese works best for this recipe.
- Artichoke hearts can be drained and added to this recipe if you want to add something extra.
- If you are out of fresh or minced garlic, garlic powder can be used instead.
- Leftovers are amazing in omelets or to top burgers!
- Make sure that any additions you make are low carb to keep this a keto friendly spinach dip recipe.
If you're having a game day get-together you'll need a couple of hearty dips. I'd suggest adding this amazing buffalo chicken dip, too.
