Love the spinach dip at restaurants like TGIFriday's and the Olive Garden? Make it at home with these easy-to-follow copycat recipes.
It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).

I wanted a spinach dip recipe that didn't use soup mix or salad dressing, and not only did this fit the bill, but it was a huge hit! Very easy to make and the crispy bacon surprised everyone. I may add more dill next time, but that's it. Great recipe!
