Heres the thing: no one hates that warm and cheesy spinach-artichoke dip. In fact, if you pair it with pretty dippers, its probably one of the first appetizers to go at your party. But we understand if you feel a little old school dishing one up before the dinner (or pool) party. Thats why we took everything we loved about that dip and spruced it up. This modern recipe still uses frozen spinach for speed and simplicity, but drops the artichokes in favor for tons of fresh scallions and chives. You still have that unbeatable warm cream cheese, but its lightened up with sour cream. And a bit of lemon zest brightens everything.
