I remember reading wonderful reviews in past threads on a recipe for spinach and feta dip. I can't seem to find what issue this recipe is from... Any help would be much appreciated! I'm thinking I may bring this to a friends' house for an appetizer before a pasta dinner she is preparing.

Creamy Feta-Spinach Dip

SOURCE: Cooking Light YEAR: Jan/Feb 2000 PAGE: 158

INGREDIENTS FOR 8 SERVINGS:
1 (8-ounce) carton plain low-fat yogurt
3/4 cup (3 ounces) crumbled feta cheese
1/4 cup (2 ounces) 1/3-less-fat cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup low-fat sour cream
1 garlic clove, crushed
1-1/2 cups finely chopped spinach
1 tablespoon minced fresh or 1 teaspoon dried dill
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
Fresh Dill (optional)

INSTRUCTIONS:
We've updated the classic spinach dip by adding tangy feta and omitting the
artichokes and much of the fat.

1. Spoon yogurt onto several layers of heavy-duty paper towels; spread to
1/2-inch thickness. Cover with additional paper towels, and let stand 5
minutes. Scrape into the bowl of a food processor using a rubber spatula. Add
the cheeses, sour cream, and garlic, and process until smooth, scraping sides
of bowl once. Spoon yogurt mixture into a medium bowl, and stir in the
spinach, minced dill, and pepper. Cover and chill. Garnish with fresh dill, if
desired. Yield: 2 cups (serving size: 1/4 cup).
