When all else fails, name your creation after what’s in it, right? I had some leftover Spinach and Artichoke Dip. It was great stuff, but too much for us to eat plain. I immediately started thinking in my mind about what would go with it, so I could turn it into a main dish. Chicken! It goes with everything :-). Here is what I came up with…the kids all cleaned their plates:
