I’m the type of person who is always down for a good dip. But spinach artichoke dip is one of my favorite’s! While we at Trader Joe’s grocery shopping, Steve put two bags of frozen artichokes into the cart. I think he realized how confused I was by my facial expression, so he informed me that he was going to make homemade spinach artichoke dip and I instantly had a smile. It’s the little things that make you happy in life, right? That night, Steve found multiple recipes for the dip and picked out what he thought was good from each.
