Submitted by jobmom

"combined several recipes.. it still seems a little bland - needs a bit more kick?? maybe a different cheese mixed in and only use half the cream cheese?? or maybe some italian or chili seasoning??? I used a bag of baby spinach --not sure how many ounces in it--same size as supermarket bagged salads"
