Ingredients
16 oz. Fresh spinach, washed
3 cloves garlic, finely minced
2 cups Light Greek yogurt, plain
16 oz. Light cream cheese
14 oz. Can artichoke hearts
Lemon zest from one lemon
¼ cup Green onion, finely chopped

Olive Oil
Instructions
In a large saute pan, add a splash of olive oil to cover pan. Turn heat to medium low, and add fresh spinach. Add garlic cloves and cook spinach until it shrinks and wilts completely. Pull the spinach from the pan and place into a strainer. Apply pressure to the spinach with a large spoon or spatula to remove excess moisture. Set aside.
Remove artichokes from can, and rinse under cold water. Apply pressure to drain excess moisture. Chop the artichoke hearts into small pieces and add to a large bowl. To the same bowl, add the minced green onions, lemon zest and cooked spinach.
Add the Greek yogurt and cream cheese into a blender or food processor. Blend until fully combined and smooth. Add the mixture to the bowl, and stir until all ingredients are completely combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Place in the fridge and allow to fully cool for at least 3-4 hours, preferably overnight. Once fully cooled, the dip will thicken.
