Baja Spinach Dip


Addictive! Swiss chard is a good sub for the spinach. I have also divided this into smaller portions, frozen, and thawed in fridge. Works great!!

Steps


In a large skillet , bring 1 / 2 inch of water to a boil.
Cut stems off spinach , cut leaves in thirds.
Add spinach.
Cook for 2 minutes or until wilted.
Drain well.
In a large skillet , saute onion in oil until tender , the baking does not cook them much so saut to your preference.
Add garlic.
Stir in tomatoes and cream cheese until blended.
Remove skillet from burner.
Stir in spinach , salt , cheese blend , vinegar , pepper sauce , and sliced black olives.
Transfer to a greased 8 inch square baking dish.
At this point , you could refrigerate until you bake it.
Bake , covered , at 350 degrees for 30 to 35 minutes or until bubbly and lightly browned.
Serve warm with tortilla chips or toasted pita.
