Spinach Bread Bowl

Step 1: Preheat the oven to 350 F. Take your bread bowl and cut it just above the halfway mark. Scoop out bread from the bottom half, leaving a 1/2 inch border. Scoop out the bread from the top as well. Reserve in a resealable bag until use.

Step 2: Take your thawed spinach and really squeeze the liquid out of it. If you don’t, the dip will end up runny. Chop up the spinach and reserve.

Step 3: In a large mixing bowl, add the cream cheese and mayo. Mix together until well combined. Now add the minced onion, dill weed, and garlic salt. Stir in the spinach and cheddar cheese.

Step 4: Pour the mixture into the bottom of the bread bowl. Put the top on and wrap very well in tin foil. Place in the oven, checking after 45 minutes to 1 hour, stirring it up. Taste test – it may need up to an additional hour.

Serve with the reserved bread and additional bread like baguette or crackers. The whole bread bowl can be eaten as well!
