Ingredients
1 c fat-free cottage cheese 1/2 cup fat-free sour cream 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese1 (10 oz) package frozen spinach (thawed)1 can artichoke hearts, drained (about 1 1/2 cups)2 cloves garlic (or more to suit your preferences)
Directions
Press the spinach between two plates to remove as much of the water as possible.

Whirl garlic in food processor to chop, add cottage cheese and whirl till almost smooth.

Add spinach and artichoke hearts ... whirl till consistency is however chunky or smooth you like.

Add sour cream (and Parmesan cheese if using) and whirl just enough to blend.

You can then eat this as a cold dip ... *OR* spoon it into ramekins or a casserole dish and bake at 350 F for approx. 15 minutes (or microwave till hot).

If baking, sprinkle a spoonful of the grated Parmesan (if you're adding it) over the top of the dish rather than mixing it all into the dip.

Makes a DELICIOUS hot dip for toasted bagel chips or pita chips!

     fat free greek yogurt is a great substitute to FF sour cream..i actually prefer it. RED ROBIN serves their S & A Dip with diced tomato and red onion on top and celery as a dipper (along with french bread and tortilla chips), but i would go with toasted weight watchers pita bread(cut into triangles). - 8/12/09

     this recipe is GREAT!! i add a little extra garlic and make it for family dinners and my notoriously "NO DIET FOOD ALLOWED" family loves it, they don't even know it's a light recipe!! thanx for sharing! - 1/19/10

     Delicious just the way it is! But I did add a little Balsamic vinegar (maybe 1/2 tsp) mixed it up well and heated it in the oven. Yum! - 4/4/09

     I substituted Fat Free Plain Yogurt for the sour cream and it was a HUGE hit at my party. :) I think next time I'll use fresh spinach, though. It took forever for the spinach to thaw and had I used fresh spinach, I could have just washed it in the salad spinner and thrown it into the blender, too. - 12/30/08

     This was a great appetizer served warm with toasted pita bread. I will definitely make this again. - 6/8/09

     I have been looking for a recipe like this since I had a similar (high-calorie, I'm sure) appetizer at Applebee's. - 12/20/08

     I think fresh parmesan cheese is what makes this so yummy. I added a little extra cheese than it called for but justified it by upping the calcium. Very Very GOOD!!!! - 6/27/07

     Love this ! It was so good. I added a little crab meat and Mozella Cheese to it the second time. Put it on a low sodium Cracker. So good. - 2/14/21

     We love this recipe and serve it with celery and carrot sticks. I add a little freshly squeezed lemon, some extra garlic, and dried red pepper to spice it up a little more. - 3/2/20

     Had no real flavor. Tried doctoring it up, but it just never tasted right. I'll stick to the jar stuff. - 3/12/13

     gonna reduce the garlic to one clove for the party I am bringing it to but was really nice - 2/13/11
  • BSGUARD
     I think I'll blended it too well and took out some of the texture, but no one guessed it was low fat! - 1/4/11
  • MARLA_S
     I found this to be pretty good. The guests at my party loved it!! I thought it was a little dry; I was thinking it would be creamier. I was thinking about using half the spinach next time to see what that might do to the texture. Overall good flavor though. - 1/6/10

     Really easy to make. I made it for a thing at work and my coworkers loved it! I recommend serving it with Garlic Pita Chips - 10/1/08
