This is always a hit at parties, and is frequently requested by friends and relations. I got it from my mother many years ago. And if, by some weird chance, you have any leftover, it's great on toast in the morning for breakfast. I serve it with plain crackers and/or carrot and celery crudites. Ingredients:
250 g cream cheese, spreadable |
3 -4 slices bacon, rind removed |
80 g frozen spinach |
Directions:
1. Grill bacon until well-cooked, but not crispy. If you do this on a rack above an oven tray, much of the fat will drip away. The time will vary according to the type of bacon. Cool bacon for a few minutes, then chop into very small pieces.
2. Microwave frozen spinach according to directions on the package. Drain any liquid.
3. In a medium sized bowl, mix all the ingredients together until well-blended, then transfer to a nice serving bowl.
4. Cover with glad wrap and cool in the fridge. If you can prepare this a few hours ahead of time, the flavours will intensify, but it is fine straight away.
