It's football season and there is nothing better than just sitting at home and pigging out on Sunday afternoons! I will be posting some great recipes to feed the masses and keep those boys happy. This first one is super easy and I have a great recipe for the leftovers (I will post that tomorrow!). I want to try the non-dairy version with tofutti cream cheese, veggie chedder and turkey bacon. I imagine it will turn out just as good and a lot healthier :)
Ingredients:
1 pkg. (9-10 oz.) spinach
1 lb. (16 oz.) Velveeta Cheese (2% kind)
4 oz. (1/2 of 8-oz. pkg.) Philadelphia Fat Free Cream Cheese
8 slices bacon
1. Combine the two cheese together in a bowl and microwave on high for a couple minutes until they have melted. Remove from the microwave and stir together.
2. Heat a pan over medium high heat. Cook the bacon until nice and crispy. I always take a paper towel and remove any excess fat that is released by the bacon while it is cooking. Place a couple pieces of paper towel onto a plate. Remove the bacon from the pan and place on top of the paper towels. Let them drain and cool. Then slice them into little pieces.
3. Cook the spinach in the same pan that you used to cook the bacon. Leave a little bit of grease on the bottom and then place the entire package of spinach in the pan. Cook until the spinach has completely wilted down. Remove the spinach from the pan and slice into little pieces.
4. Place the cheese, bacon and spinach in the pan. Turn the heat to low and allow all the ingredients to melt and blend together.
Serve with your favorite type of chips..we tried the multigrain tostitos and loved them!
