Guests on Christmas eve did not go back for seconds. The complaint was the spinach was not cooked enough. next time I will cook and squeeze dry the spinach first. had to discard most of it as I didn't like the raw spinach either.

Made this for a party and it was the first thing to go. Everyone loved it. I think the cayenne pepper adds a subtle flavor that makes it a little different from the typical artichoke-spinach dip.

if you put this in smaller containers and freeze, do you defrost before baking and at what temp for how long.

Well you have Parmesan cheese, mayo and cream cheese! My guess would be that it isn't figure friendly. You could substitute reduced fat cream cheese and olive oil mayo and cut back on the Parm for a reduced calorie recipe. With these type of recipes all you really need to do is look at the ingredients and you know whether it is high in calories and then just substitute ingredients to suit your needs :)

The receipe looks good. I'm going to try your lowfat version and add it to rice as a main entree. I'll add asiago or fontinella for a bolder cheesey flavor too. Not as much needed helps cut the calories.

I like the recipe but I would like to know the calorie count if you have that information. Everyone is watching their weight nowadays and having the calories on all the recipes would be a huge help on staying healthy and fit.
