Spinach & Artichoke Dip

This low cal version of spinach & artichoke dip will make you think twice about ordering this appetizer out. I think this recipe tastes just as good, if not better than at a restaurant! I made this for J's birthday dinner and I'm definitely going to make it again soon. Plus, I can't wait to start making crab dip at home when the Mother Nature decides it's finally time to stay warm.

1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt

1 cup reduced fat shredded mozzarella cheese
