Light Spinach and Artichoke Dip

Ingredients

1 tablespoon butter
1 (8-ounce) package low-fat cream cheese
1 garlic clove, chopped
1 (6-ounce) package fresh baby spinach
1 (14-ounce) can artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
1/2 cup light sour cream
1/2 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon ground red pepper

Directions

  1. In a large skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add cream cheese and garlic; cook 3 to 4 minutes, stirring constantly until cream cheese melts.
  2. Stir in spinach and cook until wilted. Stir in remaining ingredients and cook until cheese is melted and mixture is heated through. Serve immediately.
NOTE: For a crusty top, place the mixture in a shallow baking dish and bake in a preheated 350-degree oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until golden.
