Mast o Esfenaj is a classic Persian dip made with spinach, yogurt and seasoning. Vegetarian and gluten free, this dip is ready in just 10 minutes.
Ingredients
  • 2 cups of yogurt (again, I'm loyal to Fage 2% but use your favorite!)
  • 1 10-ounce package of frozen spinach, thawed and drained well of excess water (you may want to stick it in a saute pan on medium for 5 minutes to 'dry it out')
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon fresh-ground pepper
  • 2 dashes of garlic powder
  • Walnuts (optional - I don't use them since I'm allergic)
Instructions
  1. All you have to do is mix everything up and then chill for a couple hours. Then enjoy with pita bread, chips, as a side dish or just by itself!
