Tastes great, make sure you dry your spinach well. I didn't on the first batch and it was a little runny instead of creamy, just added another avocado and it was fine. My husband loves spinach, but could take or leave avocado. I love avocado, but could take or leave spinach. We both loved this recipe. Read More

One word - YUM! My garlic clove was BIG and if you're not a fan of garlic use a small one. I love garlic so it's just fine for me. I have a friend who likes Guacamole dip but says it's "too fattening". I told her about the fresh spinach - she's hooked on it now and makes it with chopped tomatoes & Greek yogurt instead of sour cream and dips her veggies in it. One of the first appetizers to go at my get togethers'. Thanks for sharing! Read More

I highly recommend making a double batch this is that good. Just the right amount of spiciness from the jalapeno and hot sauce. Read More

I didn't have lime juice so I used lemon. I didn't have low-fat sour cream so I used regular. I didn't have a jalapeno so I used green pepper. I didn't have a red onion so I used a yellow. But it turned out just great.. Ha-Ha! PS I didn't use it as a dip I used it on a pizza.. Great with fresh mushrooms hamburger and mozzarella! Read More

I had to amend it a little due to what I had in the cupboards but it was delicious and I can only imagine that the unaltered version is even better. Read More

Followed the recipe to the letter and will in the future. I can't imagine this getting any better. I would like to think the use of my homemade smoked hot pepper sauce took it from 4 stars to 5 but we'll never know. Read More
