This is a decadent and rich dish that no one will guess is clean! When shopping for ingredients, purchase fresh-cooked lobster from your local fishmonger.
2 tbsp each chopped fresh chives and flat-leaf parsley
Sea salt and fresh ground pepper, to taste
INSTRUCTIONS:
Preheat oven to 375°F. In a large skillet, heat oil on medium-high. Cooking in batches if necessary, add garlic and spinach and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, until spinach is just wilted. Transfer to a colander, allow to cool for 2 to 3 minutes and gently press to drain excess water. Cool to room temperature and transfer to a large mixing bowl. Set aside.
Add mozzarella, yogurt, cream cheese, lemon juice and cayenne to the bowl of a food processor and pulse until thoroughly combined. Using a spatula, scrape cheese mixture into bowl with spinach. Stir in lobster, Brie, chives and parsley. Season with salt and pepper.
Transfer dip to a shallow ovenproof casserole dish and place dish on a baking tray. Heat in oven for 15 to 18 minutes, until hot and bubbling. Remove from oven and let rest for 3 to 4 minutes.

Nutritional Bonus:
This decadent dip may seem indulgent, but it is nutritionally so much better than any traditional hot cheese dip that can contain more than 55 g of fat and over 1,000 calories per serving! Each serving also packs 16 g of protein largely due to the lobster and quinoa flour (in the crackers).
