• After spinach has thawed, pour the creamed spinach into a small, microwave safe bowl. Add the rest of the ingredients, stirring well to combine. (It's perfectly fine to have small lumps of cream cheese in the dip at this time.).
• Microwave the mixture, uncovered, on high for 5 minutes. Stir about halfway through cooking, and again before serving.
• NOTES - Serve with tortilla chips. Leftovers make a quick and easy stuffed mushroom, too. If you have Swiss cheese sandwich slices, these can be used, too. Thinly slice the cheese. Just use 2 oz - usually 3-4 slices, depending on thickness of the cheese.
