How to make Creamy Spinach Dip Recipe - It's quick and simple to prepare, packed with just the right seasonings you most likely already have in your pantry. You can serve this dip in a bowl or large sourdough bread bowl with the center removed and saved for dipping. The kids will get a kick out of making the bread bowl and using it for dipping, even if spinach is something they might not normally love.

Ingredients:
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 10-ounce bag fresh spinach leaves
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 8-ounce package cream cheese, softened
1 8-ounce container sour cream
1⁄4 teaspoon kosher salt
1⁄4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1⁄4 teaspoon garlic salt
1 large sourdough bread bowl

Method:
1. Heat the olive oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat. Add the spinach and cook, stirring, until wilted, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Transfer the mixture to a paper towel–lined plate. Let cool for 5 minutes, then with paper towels, press and remove as much liquid as possible from the cooked spinach.

2. Add the cream cheese, sour cream, salt, pepper, garlic salt, and cooked spinach to a mixing bowl, stirring to combine. Transfer to a hollowed-out large sourdough bread bowl. Serve with sourdough bread pieces and/or crackers.
