 Joanna (United States) says:
This is great!! To make less fattening - I saute onions and 2 gloves of garlic in spray on olive oil. Non fat cream cheese and sour cream (trust me you won't know the difference!) and reduced fat cheese blend. Spinach and artichokes of course, and my secret incredient....fresh salsa from the market. It comes alive with flavor, just enough heat, and so creamy.

 Skbishop (California) says:
Very good, I use pepper jack cheese instead of Monterey, and I think it needs fresh garlic sauteed in with the onions... but very good!

 Tammy (Minnesota) says:
EXCELLENT!!! I made this for a Lady's Night at my home and it was a huge hit! Even my sister who was convinced she wouldn't like it LOVED it! Will be making this AGAIN!!

 Barbara (Texas) says:
Can't miss with this. I have never put butter in mine, but have used a combo of cream cheese,sour cream and mayo or mayo and cream cheese only if I don't have sour cream. Also I like using the frozen artichoke. Cut up in pieces that fit on cracker or whatever .. You just have to season with additional stuff. Variations:

- Add a few drops of Tabasco sauce.
- Add Shredded Asiago cheese.
- Add Package of Ranch dressing seasoning (dry).
