Spinach Herb Dip
The fresh flavors of spinach, yogurt, goat cheese and mint make a great sauce, dip or dressing.
Serve with thinly sliced fennel, chilled steamed asparagus, endive leaves, purple heirloom carrots and radishes. You can also use as a sauce to top chicken, fish or grilled tofu, or thin them with lemon juice to make a creamy salad dressing.
