Hg's Rockin' Restaurant Spinach Dip - Ww Points = 1

Here is yet another Hungry Girl recipe listed as one of their Top 10 for Game Day. "HG is here with the guilt-free spinach dip of your dreams! Gooey, cheesy spinach dip and tortilla chips -- it's one of the most delicious appetizers you can order. It's also one of the most fattening (Please don't be one of those people that pretends anything made with spinach can't possibly be bad for your diet!). So how can something contain mayo, cheese and sour cream, and still be guilt-free? Is it magic? Nah, just some clever substitution action, courtesy of the swap-mistress herself, Hungry Girl."
