Dilly Cheese Ring With Spinach Dip Recipes

CHEESY SPINACH AND ARTICHOKE BREAD RING DIP RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Coat a 10 inch (25cm) oven-safe skillet with olive oil. Place the dinner roll dough balls in a ring around the skillet. Cover and let rise until thawed and doubled in size.
• In a medium bowl, combine cream cheese, parmesan, romano, mozzarella, sour cream, artichoke hearts, spinach, garlic, basil, and red pepper flakes.
• Once the dough has thawed, uncover and scoop the dip into the center of the skillet.
• Brush the rolls with olive oil, and top with an additional sprinkle of cheese (optional).
• Bake in a preheated oven at 375˚F (190˚C) for 25 minutes.
• (If the bread browns too quickly, lower oven temperature to 350˚F (180˚C) or cover the bread with a ring of foil). Remove and let cool slightly before serving.
• Enjoy!

SPINACH DIP WITH GARLIC, YOGURT AND DILL

Steps:

• If using fresh spinach, put it in a colander in the sink. Bring a kettle of water to a boil and pour it over the spinach to wilt it. Let the spinach cool completely, then use your hands to squeeze it very dry. Coarsely chop spinach and set it aside. If using frozen chopped spinach, just squeeze it out until it's very dry, then set aside.
• In a blender or food processor, combine scallions, yogurt, cream cheese, dill, parsley, garlic, 2 teaspoons lemon juice, zest, cumin, 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. With the motor running, drizzle in olive oil and blend, scraping down the sides as needed, until the mixture is very smooth, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Scrape the mixture into a mixing bowl and fold in the chopped spinach until evenly distributed. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to blend. Dip will keep in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
• Just before serving, taste and add more salt, pepper and lemon juice, if you like. To serve, scrape dip into a serving bowl, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with Urfa or Aleppo pepper flakes, if desired.

CREAMY CHEESY SPINACH DIP

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Grease a 1 1/2-quart shallow baking dish with 1 teaspoon olive oil.
• Heat 2 teaspoons olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Cook and stir onion and garlic in hot oil until lightly browned, 4 to 7 minutes. Add spinach and simmer until spinach is hot, about 5 minutes. Drain any liquid from the mixture and transfer to a bowl.
• Pour milk into pot and return pot to medium heat. Melt cream cheese into the milk; cook and stir together about 3 minutes. Return spinach mixture to pot with 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese and Cheddar cheese; stir to combine. Season the mixture with Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and top with 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese.
• Bake in preheated oven until bubbly and golden brown on top, 20 to 25 minutes.

TANGY CHEESY DILL PICKLE DIP

Steps:

• 1. Mix cream cheese until smooth and creamy. For chopped pickle, I shred them on a cheese grater (much easier and quicker!).
• 2. Add the rest of the ingredients. Mix well. Add milk to thin out if it's too thick or you can form into a cheese ball and cover with parsley or dillweed.
• 3. Serve with crackers or chips!

DILLY CHEESE PINWHEELS

Steps:

• Place cream cheese in a mixer or food processor and cream until smooth. Add dill and Edam cheese to mix and blend.
• Open first canister crescent dough and piece together the dough into 2 rectangles pairing the our four triangles together in one sheet and the inner for triangles together in another. Its okay to stretch the dough out a little bit.
• Spread a thin layer of of the cream cheese on the dough.
• Begin rolling the dough using the long side as the center of the pinwheel. Contine rolling into tube. Wrap tubes with wax paper twisting edges of paper. Repeat with the second roll of crescent dough.
• Place both tubes into the freezer for 20 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Remove dough from wax paper and begin slicing into 3/8 inch pieces. Place the pieces on cookie sheet. Bake 12-13 minutes.
• Allow the pinwheels to cool 5-10 minutes before removing from the cookie sheet. If you remove too soon, they will not retain their shape as the cheese will be too hot and soft.
• Serve either hot or cold.
• (Note cooking time includes freezing time.).

CREAMY DILL SPINACH DIP

Steps:

• Mix sour cream and mayo.
• Add well drained spinach and remaining ingredients.
• Refrigerate immediately for at least an hour before serving. (I like it better refrigerated overnight).
