Low Carb Creamy Spinach Dip

Low Carb Creamy Spinach Dip recipe is a delicious, creamy, cheesy dip that uses simple ingredients and is really easy to make. This is the perfect dip for entertaining and parties. It is equally at home as a healthy snack or dip to help keep you on the straight and narrow. It’s made from all healthy natural ingredients but is low in carbs and free from sugar and preservatives.

This dip is perfect for anyone following a low carb, keto or lchf way of eating. It tastes great served with low carb freshly cut vegetable crudites like celery, red or green peppers and sliced cucumber. My favorite way to eat it is with some home made low carb crackers. Make sure you check out these recipes Low Carb Seed Crackers, or Low Carb Almond Seed Crackers. It’s also lovely used as a sauce on grilled chicken for a really simple main meal idea. Serve it simply with some low carb vegetables for a tasty but nutritious meal.

Make Your Own Mayonnaise

I like to make my own mayonnaise to use in this recipe. Simply follow this recipe for Low Carb Sugar Free mayonnaise.  You will have some fresh, no fail, delicious tasting mayonnaise in just a few minutes. Basically all that you need is a stick blender, an egg, some light tasting EVOO- extra virgin olive oil, and some seasonings such as Dijon mustard, lemon juice or vinegar, and salt and pepper. Make sure you use a really light tasting oil in this recipe to avoid too much oil flavor.

If you like the sound of this dip you might be interested in this recipe for Spinach and Artichoke Dip or this delicious recipe for Low Carb Artichoke Dip. As with this Low Carb Cream Spinach Dip recipe, these other dip recipes are all low carb, sugar free recipes.

I hope you enjoy this recipe.
