A hollowed out cabbage makes a bright serving piece for this creamy spinach dip. I found the recipe in a cookbook, and I receive many compliments whenever I serve it to company.—Patricia Johnson, Kingfield, Maine

Ingredients

1 large head red cabbage
1 package (10 ounces) frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
1 cup sour cream
1 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup chopped green onions
1/2 cup minced fresh parsley
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon dill weed
Assorted fresh vegetables

Directions

1. Gently peel back outer leaves of cabbage. Slice 1/2 in. from bottom of cabbage so it sits flat. Cut a 3-in. circle in the top of the cabbage; hollow out a third of the cabbage to form a bowl (save removed cabbage for another use).
2. In a large bowl, combine the spinach, sour cream, mayonnaise, onions, parsley, lemon juice and dill. Spoon into cabbage bowl just before serving. Serve with vegetables.
