This was a great recipe. I made a double batch for a cookout and people loved it. I did do less mayo and more yogurt, but I also added artichoke hearts and chopped water chestnuts. Also instead of the herbs suggested, I added a pack of onion soup mix...Yummy!

This turned out pretty good. It doesn't taste exactly like the spinach dips at the store, but it's definitely a lot healthier and pretty good tasting too! I also cut down the mayo by half a cup and increased the yogurt by half a cup. I put in all the spinach I had, which was the whole bunch that they sell at the stores in the fresh produce section.

Good flavor, but DO NOT make this in a food processor. It becomes too watery. I'm not sure how I'll thicken this up... EDIT - added a small container of sour cream to thicken, and it definitely helped -- both with flavor and consistency. I hadn't realized before just how salty this was by the recipe. Much better now.

This is tasty and nutritious. Can't beat that. I used low-fat yogurt and mayo. I accidentally changed the spice measurement from 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon and I'm glad I did. I added onion powder and used garlic powder instead of garlic salt. I used one teaspoon of season salt to cut back on the salt and it was still pretty noticeable. I added a heaping 1/4 teaspoon of crushed red pepper that really was great with it but it still could have used some water-chestnuts. I used about a cup of left-over steamed spinach and could have used more. Over all, very good stuff though. It's good to know that yogurt can be used in place of its less nutritious counterparts.

This was pretty gross, which is such a shame because I really wanted it to be good! I took the suggestion of another reviewer and subed an extra 1/2 cup of yogurt for the mayo, but I think that made it worse. I also ended up with waaaaay too much "sauce", so I kept throwing spinich in. I added artichokes, onions, parm, and still it wasn't very tasty :( It did taste the best when I ate it on bell pepper "chips"

We love this recipe. Always keep some in the fridge. It is great as a dip but also as a dressing in souvlaki pitas (instead of tzatziki) or on burgers. We use 1/2 cup of mayo instead of the full cup and add 1/2 cup of yogurt (total of 1 1/2 cups of yogurt). We prefer the consistency and the flavours stand out more with yogurt than mayo.

Super Bowl Sunday and I had a box of frozen spinach & took to the all recipes! Took everyones reviews into consideration on this recipe - cut way back on the mayo & added little sour cream - cut back on the seasoning salt & picked up differnce with the Old Bay, went with the fronzen spinach because had that on hand. Last went light on garlic powder in place of the garlic salt. Also added little ground pepper & a little grated Parmesan. With everyones helpful reviews - I think this creation is worth 5 stars! Will be a yummy hit at the big game!

The worst recipe I've tried so far. No redeeming factors whatsoever. Used garlic instead of garlic salt & still WAAAAAY too salty. Sorry, but I followed everything to a "T", but no good.

This was allll the rage at my block party. My brother and his friends almost ate all of it before most of our guests arrived! I even used FAT FREE yogurt, and no one knew! I used more spinach for it too, as it seemed you can keep adding and adding. My boyfriend cut up some whole wheat pitas, brushed with olive oil and basil, and viola! Perfect combo. I like it better than any other spinach dip I had, and felt it was a healthier too.

I don't usually like plain yogurt, but this was a good use for it! I omitted all of the salt because people said it was too salty, added (1/3 cup?) shredded parmesan cheese and diced onions, and used around 3 cups of fresh chopped spinach instead of 1. Served with Hawaiian bread for the sweet contrast! Will use again.

Yum! Huge hit! I used fat free yogurt, 1 10-oz package of extremely well-thawed and well-drained frozen spinach that I ran the knife through just to make sure there weren't any big pieces, 1 tsp of Italian seasoning instead of opening 3 separate containers for oregano, basil and parsley, garlic powder instead of garlic salt and Old Bay instead of Lawry's seasoning salt (what I had on hand). Delicious and not too salty for us...because of the Old Bay??

I thought this dip was much too salty. However, it had a delicious flavor. I would recommend cutting down on the seasoning salt and maybe using garlic powder instead of garlic salt.

This was great and easy! I used Miracle Whip instead of mayo, and I will definitely use mayo next time. Using fresh spinach is the way to go with this recipe. If you're serving a large group, I'd double the recipe, it goes fast! Thanks!

So easy and delicious! This tastes creamy and bright without the bitter taste you get with the frozen spinach type dips. I used baby spinach leaves, and and used non-fat yogurt. It's just really really good!
