At a going away party on Saturday night the people were abuzz about one thing – the freakin’ gorgeous dip. People were scraping what they could from the bottom of the bowl. The recipe below comes from Kelly, a Canadian chick, I tried to dance poorly with in Roddys in Rathmines after the dip had gone. I can’t envisage there beingsuch a thing as too much of this stuff, I have no evidence of this, but it is scientific fact.

1 tub cream cheese

1 tub sour cream

Bag of spinach, wilted, let cool and chop finely

3 diced garlic cloves

Half an onion (or 6 green onions) chopped

Salt & Pepper to taste

Half a lemon squeezed in

Mix it all together and refrigerate an hour or 2
