We loved this.  Generally spinach artichoke is full of mayo, sour cream, or cream cheese with tons of fat.  With some minor modifications I was able to eat a lot of this for few points or calories.

I would pair this with a Hefeweizen, Lake Placid from New York.  It has a slight clove vanilla taste that gives a sweet, smooth hefeweizen a little more depth and character.  I personally love a little spice in the background of a beer, especially a light beer like a hefeweizen.  The revised version of the spinach artichoke dip has a little more spice to it so it melds well with this beer.
